My Last Signature quilt!

I just completed my last signature quilt. from siggy blocks collected from 2002 through 2008! I thought I'd used up all my siggy swap blocks but found these recently.
this quilt will go to my step dtr who is a Nurse midwife in Utah and is fighting breast cancer now.
it measures about 68x78. i used thinsulate by Thermore poly batting. I tried FMQ on two rows but had to rip out one of them. the bobbin thread wouldn't behave. So i went to regular machine quilting after that.

Love the quilt. Will she feel funny seeing all the siggy blocks? Or does she know the people too? Sending comforting prayers out for everyone.

well she's not a quilter. she crochets baby hats and jackets, etc. Loves to keep her hands busy. I can only hope she would feel the quilt blocks were made with love, which they were. it's mainly for warmth, not to be from people she happens to know.
