Hitomi Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 My daughter will be leaving soon for college, and I made this quilt for her (she wanted it bright and pink). I used the wool batting (love that stuff) and the new CL templates I bought from Marie. The pattern is from the cover of last month issue of "Quilter Magazine" except I added a small border. Cute and easy pattern to use with batik fat quarters. The label reads "Christina Maile Fear" Starting a new Chapter, Off the College, Love ya, Mom August 2011. I'll miss her but now I got a spare room for all of you to come visit me.LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankiequilter Posted July 22, 2011 Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 So pretty! Love the colors and the Circle Lord 7 Treasures design looks wonderful on it. While your daughter is away she can wrap herself with it and feel your hugs and love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tina got accepted at University of Hawaii, Manoa campus on Oahu. I didn't want my kids to be too far away from home, just another island, LOL! I'll have 2 kids at University of Hawaii this year. My son goes there too. I will have to do alot of quilting to pay for 2 in college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
