Kim & Stephen's View on the World
This quilt was for my daughter and son-in-law. Kim loves roses, singing, harping for Hospice care and cancer patients. Stephen enjoys gaming expos, electronics, Lego sculpting, and the Peanuts comic strip, specifically Charlie Brown. Hence the disparity of the colors on the two halves of the quilt. Even with this disparity, I think it came out nicely. It also includes a paper-pieced Venetian chain border, my first attempt at paper piecing. I quilted the outside borders with harps for Kim and Charlie Brown for Stephen. The centers are attic windows framed by one-block wonders. The back shows some of the original fabrics. I designed this quilt myself from scratch with no patterns. I also made a matching pair of curtains.

What a special, personalized quilt - so unique to the two of them. They can snuggle on the couch and each have their own side! Pls tell Kim that her harp skills are very welcome from my experience. Bless her heart.
