I finished this quilt last night sitting beside my daughter's hospital bed. I had started the binding before her accident and all it needed was to be handsewn down. So the quilt is covering her in bed. I had strict instructions from her that she didn't want to be in the photo!! I think this quilt will always remind me of this ghastly week now.
I had really wanted to do FMQ on this quilt, but ended up chickening out. Didn't feel confident enough, so I straight line quilted it. I pieced the back using my fav fabrics from the range.
Glad you have something to do to pass those long hours. Will come and visit on Monday
ReplyDeleteYes every time you look at this quilt it will remind of this time with your daughter. It's a lovely quilt and I really like your choice of border fabrics!
