My Mom passed several years before her first grandson married. This is a top that she made. When he married, I took the top and quilted it for his wedding gift. It is very special and meant the world to him.

That is a very beautiful S 'n' W quilt - the feature fabric caught my eye because I used the exact same fabric in my first S 'n' W several years ago - photo attached. I have since made a S 'n' W in the Ribbon Weave pattern (photo attached) and have just bought fabric to make the Fan design - can't wait to start on it! I am sure your son is thrilled to have a quilt made by both his mother and grandmother!

Beautiful! I am getting ready to make a "Stack and Whack." Several projects need to be done first, tho.

Mariah 10-02-2010 05:02 AM

Beautiful! What is a ribbon weave; fabric, technique???
I really like the stack and whack, and want to make one pretty soon.

Oh these are beautiful too. I never would have realized it was the same focus fabric, it looks so different with the blue. I have never seen the Ribbon Weave pattern, very cool!

calicocat 10-02-2010 05:45 AM

Wow, that is beautiful. I love the colors and the sentiment.
