That is my favorite panel. It reminds me of my youngest DD when she was small. I made a basic throw with it and complimentary print. THEN I painted my spare bath pink, made curtains and decorated towels using the complimentary print. OF COURSE, then I had to add a few more fairies and a framed needle point of the same darling!

You can search the archives under my name and look for Fairy Quilt for Kate, it is the Morning Fairy but I have also done the Rose Fairy too.

There's nothing like having a person in your life that holds such a special place in your heart and what more to express that love than in a quilt. Thanks for shaing your story and your quilt.
