quilted charm Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 This is a quilt a made one of our neighbors that is moving away. I used the friendship star blocks from the block swap we did earlier this year. Many of our neighbors wrote messages on the stars, so I left them unquilted. This is my first real attempt at ruler work, and it's not easy:P:P Now I have even more appreciation for all of the beautiful CH and CCH you all do! Thanks for looking and the back Not great photos, I have to get a better place to hang them, other than just draped over the couch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quilted charm Posted August 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks ya'll. It's not great, but none of my friends no that:P It was great practice, and I sure was glad I had the blocks. It made it really fast to make, and get to the neighborhood in time to sign it.

LadyLake Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Leslie, I'm sure your neighbor will be touched, not only by the many hands that signed it, but also by the obvious care you took in quilting it so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
