anniemueller Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 At long last, the Vintage Valentine is done. I think it was 9 years in the making. I made it for a dear friend in Texas. She received it today and was crying happy tears :-)) It's got wool batting. I used Presencia cotton thread for the larger quilting. Invisifil for the micro fillers. Some details: Thanks for looking!

Bonnie H Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Really that is one gorgeous quilt, Annie!!!! I can see how your friend would be moved to tears to receive something you spent so long making just for her. How touched she must have been!! I have that pattern but realized there was no way I could ever do justice to it. You certainly did it justice!!! I'm in awe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Annie, that is spectacular.. I especially love the little hearts used as the background... stunning! I'd cry too, even if it were just for getting it done, and be able to stand up, proud and happy with it. Great Job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
