I promised to post this today so here it is. The quilt's name is "Mom's Gowns" I made this for a friend of mine from her mom's nightgowns. Her mom passed away 2 years ago and she's been wanting someone to do this for her. Her birthday is in October so I got together with her husband and work it out so she will have a nice surprise for her birthday.

Oh yea this whole quilt is done with flannel gowns.

Your friend will be thrilled when she gets her quilt. It was a really sweet thing you did for her. Don't be suprised if she cries.
