The finished product was great, Sandy did an amazing job quilting and binding it. We did the backing in a comfy flannel so Kir can really enjoy it. Most importantly Kirsten loves it. We love you Kir!

I bet you didn’t know I….
Quilt! I've always enjoyed sewing, it's a fun thing I seem to pick up again every few years. Last Fall I was looking for new hobbies again and my wonderful friends at work invited me to quilt with them. We meet up once a month and have dinner and quilt. It is so much fun. We all bring our sewing machines and each month we do a quilt for a different person in the group. The person whose quilt it is comes with the fabric and pattern. Here is a picture of my first quilt, we pieced the whole thing in one night…I still need to do the machine quilting and binding…soon I promise!

Me too! I love quilting. I'm currently working on quilts for my boys made from leftover pieces of material from the pajamas I make them. I want to machine quilt them but I've never done it before. Please e-mail me and give me advice!
They look great by the way!
Your first quilt is beautiful! And that is really neat that you did that for your friend - such a cool idea!
What a wonderful gift! I would love to know how to machine quilt. A quilting group would be so fun!
That is the most beautiful, thoughtful thing I have ever seen. My goosebumps just won't go away. I'm sure she will ALWAYS treasure it. What a horrible loss!
The quilt for Kir turned out perfect. I just wish I could have seen it in person last week when you guys gave it to her. She said she'd bring it in again so I could see. I'm so glad you were able to be a part of that amazing project.
I love both of the quilts! I have always wanted to make one but I'm to impatient to put in all the work! You have inspired, me maybe I'll try? I am so sorry for your friend, I can't imagine how hard that must be.She is in my prayers!
What a wonderful thing you guys did for your friend. I am certain she will cherish it!
Sandra Smith (my neighbor) in our ward is a beautiful quilter. I should hook you up for soe ideas..she's super sweet and very talented!
