IBQLTN2 Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 4 years ago today I lost my best friend and quilting buddy, Betty O'Leary. I just finished quilting this beautiful applique quilt top of hers as a tribute to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Jeanne; I am sure that Betty was rubbing your back and cheering you on as you finished her quilt in her honor. She had a great friend in you. Your feather work looks outstanding, and I truly love the small grid pattern on the outside edge of the quilt. Great job. Thank you for sharing with us.

LibbyG Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I'm sure you're missing your friend. Her memory will be eternal with her beautiful work around. I love the way you quilted this, especially the designs around the applique in the border and then that tiny tiny crosshatching. Just stunning!
