SISTER QUILTS
Two sisters,
one loves pink and green, HORSES
one loves purple and green, FLOWERS
I wanted to find a common "thread" with these two quilts...
So on the backs I added a block from each others quilts,
a pinwheel onto the circle flowers, and a circle onto the varied pinwheel
They are off to be quilted, then on to their new homes...
I have so enjoyed this commission. They have two other of my quilts.
"Nothing but kisses",
that was auctioned off for love without boundaries fundraiser!
They also have a baby quilt that I made when their youngest daughter was born.
So I know these quilts are going to good home.
Feels so good.
GAIL!!!!
I was so surprised to open this!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
I love it! and it has a home on my table.
And thank you to all of you who sent me orphan blocks.
It will be a joy and pleasure to put it together, with bits from all my blog friends...
