cdilday Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 My 83-yr old mother pieced this top (April-November 2012), and I had the honor of quilting it on my George (Nov-Jan 2013). This is a Sue Garman designed BOM that my mom added borders onto so it would fit her twin beds when pushed together. All finished and laundered, it measures 100" x 122". I used W&N batting and Superior thread (Bottom Line & Magnifico). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zora Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 This quilt is stunning. Having done some large quilts on my DSM, I know how much work this quilt was. While George is an amazing machine, it takes an amazing quilter to do such beautiful work. You and your Mom should both be very proud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
