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.
If you still have her address, keep asking. We all get busy and fail to do things that we really did intend to do and then so much time passes, we just put it out of our mind.
