    Default Elvis Quilt
    I finally finished this Elvis quilt for my dd who is an Elvis lover. Started out as fabric that I cut all the photos apart and made blocks. Then I Machine Embroidered the song blocks and machine quilted the white blocks. Don't look too close as this was my first time freehand quilting, not too good, but she won't mind. Also stitched in the ditch. It's pinned to the design board dh made for me. Very black and white and it's more vibrant in person. Now she can take it back to NY when she visits this week.

    That is very nice. I love Elvis also, listen to his love songs and gospel albums all the time.

    That is a really neat quilt for someone who likes Elvis. I do. I guess it could be done for any star or even a hobby.

    I'm a big Elvis fan. You did a great job on the quilt. She had better love it or I'll send you my address.
