Charity Quilt - Almost Done

Well, today was a free sew day at Leah's and Joy snagged the room. A little while after I got to the shop, Ms. Janet, teacher extraordinnaire, opened the door and handed me Craig's Charity Quilt. OH MY GOODNESS !!! She did the most gorgeous job quilting it, which is exactly why I wanted her to do it for me.....SHE'S TOTALLY AWESOME !!!




















When I gave Janet the quilt she asked me how I wanted it quilted and I told her it was totally up to her. If she just wanted to stipple it that would be fine. Thank goodness I left it in her capable hands. She told me she made an "executive decision" when quilting it, and I love what she did !


She did a tiny stipple (meander) around all of the flowers and ribbon of the center piece and around the flowers on the corner squares. Then she "stitched in the ditch" along the inner border and piano key border. So, BEAUTIFUL !!








Here is the center part of the quilt.














Here is a close up of the quilting.

and here is the back of the quilt....



















All that's left now is the binding and the quilt will be completely finished and ready to sell raffle tickets. These pictures really don't even do justice to the quilt. You must see it in person to appreciate all of Janet's hard work. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Janet !!! You are truly AMAZING!!!


All my love,
