both of my daughters dance, and the costumes are quite expensive. When my youngest daughters duo partner had to move away I made a quilt for her using pics of them in all of their duo costumes and then added her solo pics and assorted other dance pics. I embelished with bits and pieces of costumes around the pics. In the first borders I embroideried all of the dance show names and dates, in the second border i embroideres all of her solo titles and then all of their duo dance titles. In the last border i embroidered random dance terms. It made her and her mom and even her dad cry when the opened the gift box. I didn't take even one pic of the quilt and it makes me sad that I didn't. Oh well live and learn. I asked her mom to send me a pic but that was three years ago so i guess i'm not getting it.
