susanramey Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I made this Angel Quilt for my 30 yo DD, using a pattern from a LQS. My daughter Rachel, was in a major car accident 10 years agoand severed her aorta after hitting a tree head-on. The doctors were surprised she survived and we said her guardian angel must have been looking out for her. I always wanted to make her an angel quilt and when I saw this pattern I knew this was for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susanramey Posted December 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I used flannel on the back so it will be cozy. She lives in Maryland and I used Quilters Dream batting. I used CL cable border for the border and then quilted feathers on both sides and finished edge with beadboard quilting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
