Laura Farnham Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Anna's Quilt! I made this Quilt for a very good friend of mine. She has not seen any of my work since I got my Milli. Her favorite colors are green and purple and she wanted me to stitch some dragonflies into it. I hope she likes it! Thanks for looking!

Laura Farnham Posted February 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Here's a close-up of the Dragonfly. Not sure if you can see it but I used a irridecsant(sp?) lavender thread. Laura:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltmonkey Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Laura, The lavender, green and white quilt is simply scrumptious. So lovely. Wow! I can just imagine your special friend Anna's face when she sees this for the first time, her chin dropping to the floor and her eyes filling with tears of joy and disbelief that this is actually made for her. Wow, what a lucky friend she has in you. OK, if you run out of friends and you get bored some day, and you really get the urge to make another one of these things, just remember that I'm your friend...OK? OK! Yah...that's right! Don't forget lil' old me! Until then, I wish you many days of happy quilting to my buddy, my pal, my friend, my dearest lovely sweet lady...

Laura Farnham Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Anna's Quilt update. She loved it. Recieved it on Friday and called right away. Her Mom Said it had to be done with a computer guided machine. I told her it was all freehand. She couldn't believe it. Sorry to those of you who were on "The List" She's keeping it. Have a great day! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
