Gifts from quilters to other quilters
#71
I had someone on this board send me a small lap quilt for my kitty. It was a complete surprise. I could not love it more and so does kitty. I have made a lot of pillow sheets and taught a friend how to make them. I said to her one time, I'd make you a set of pillow sheets but since I taught you that's kind of an oxymoron. She said she would absolutely love to have me make her a set. She said, sure, I can make it, but getting it from you would be extra special and mean a lot to me. So there 'ya go.

Yes, I have given and received quilts from my quilting friendship group and recently a quilt from a guild member, "just because" she wanted to give me something. She is quite talented at her quilt making and long arm quilting, so I am very honored.

We had this discussion a while back and here was the result. I hope more people will join us. There is still time, but I am not sure how much longer you will have.

Interesting - I think you are right. We don't tend to do that, and the real truth is, I'd just love something quilted from others and suspect my quilting friends are much the same. Will have to remedy that pattern. Thanks for bringing it up!
