My oldest sister's birthday is in March, and she LOVES angels. She collects them, and I think it would be safe to say that she has over 100 of them. So I thought I'd like to make her an angel quilt. Unfortunately, all of the patterns I've been able to find online are for table runners or wall hangings. I haven't been able to find anything for making actual bed quilts. Can anyone out there help me please? :::::using the ol' puppy dog eyes treatment:::::

    Chose the block design you like best and don't worry how it's shown.

    Here's a paper pieced one. It's in Christmas colors, but you could make it to fit her decor

    Love the Angel Babies, did a swap with them a couple years ago. Everybody decorated them with all kinds of goodies. I got one that even had a green mohawk, lol. I used the blocks as part of my Relay for Life quilt last year. FatCat has an Angel Block of the Month going on.

    beggars can't be choosers ;-) I have more fun making quilts for people who don't ask for them.

    The Angel Babies is cute! My DFIL has asked me to make a quilt for a DF's DGD (confused yet?) who is special needs. He wanted it to have different fabrics for tactile since she is also blind. This might just do the trick! I could make the dresses out of different types of fabric!

    Thanks!!!!

    Diannia, I'd be happy to go through my stash and send you fabrics with a tactile quality to help you have more variety to the parts of each angel --no charge for fabrics or postage. No doubt others on the board would like to do the same. The only thing required from you would be where to send the package to.

    I have some small pieces from a woman who did bridal work. Lace, velvet, all sorts of goodies. I'd donate some too!
