Joyce888 sent me her Granddaughter's first Quilt. Joyce had posted a pic on her a few weeks ago.
Kaitlyn's only request was Peace Signs :) So being from that era, I made a template, it brought back lot's of memories, I had a hard time at first remembering what a peace sign looked like !! I put Peace signs in the squares, little peace signs in the corner stones, with loops and circles in the sashing. In the border I put some Peace flower's with loops and circles. After seeing kaitlyn's pic with her quilt, I thought I needed to add something, so I put some small and tiny Butterfly's on a few of the flower's.
We used Soft and Bight Batting, and a blue verigated thread.
Thanks for the memories Kaitlyn, and I hope you enjoy your quilt as much as I enjoyed quilting it for you :)
Thanks for looking
