Little House Creations Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 My customer made this quilt as a gift for her 2 yr old granddaughter - to be given when she turns 18! It was so much fun to quilt - Hobbs Wool Batting; So Fine thread. I SID all the Dresden pieces, filled with swirl hook filler, cc in sashings and made "ghost" dresdens in the large plain borders. This was a feel good quilt - and my customer was so pleased! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningThreads Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Perfect timing. Brenda has one to do for a customer that has been sitting here for a couple of weeks. She was going to load it tomorrow but still wasn't sure what she was going to do with it. Gives her some other ideas. Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qltnbe Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I can't believe she can wait 16 years before she gives that quilt away. It's too pretty to store away. Nice job on the quilting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yankiequilter Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Beautiful and a treasure for the granddaughter. You might suggesst to your customer that it should be stored wrapped with acid free tissue paper and/or in an acid free box. Also, it should be refolded every few months to reduce the chance of permanent folds in the batting and quilt . Maybe that will inspire her to give it to her granddaughter sooner.

Quilta93 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Very pretty. 16 years is a long time to wait. Deb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbinsbobbins Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I agree, encourage her to give it now. I've made "heirloom " quilts for my young grandchildren. I said please use it, and if it wears out, I'll make another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CindyT Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 That is such a happy quilt. Quilting accents it very well and looks like it was fun to do. Happy customers are the best, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlsa3 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 That's called preplanning to make something 16 years in advance but a smart move....we don't know what tomorrow may bring. Beautiful quilt. Excellent work. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
