Wannabelongarm Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 This is a DWR for a customer, she is 85 and is churning out quilts like you can't believe. It is an honour to quilt for her. She always wanted to do a DWR and her daughter found this kit. She wasn't crazy about the colours, but finished it anyway. I tried to keep it simple to meet her budget and had a ball quilting it for her. I think one of the gifts we receive as a quilter is the joy on our customers faces (usually . . .) when they receive their quilts back. She was delighted and said I made her look like a really good quilter. We had some good giggles and she gave me four more quilts to do, I think I have done 7 for her already. Thanks for looking.

K. Szymaszek Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Great job on both of you. I love the continuous line border, I've used it twice now and it is my new favorite. So fast and great look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFQuilts Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Joanne, You did a great job of quilting the DWR, making it special without breaking her budget. You both should be very pleased. It's good to have prolifice piecers for customers:) Lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fineseams Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I really like the simple, but very effective quilting you chose - it looks great, fits your customer's budget, and works really well with the DWR. Hooray for you!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibbyG Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 It's such a cute idea to feather around the WR in the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
