Katie picked this one as hers...had enough to make a little lap quilt in complimentary colors.Took awhile..as it was hand quilted...but made it by her graduation.

Yes...I did it by hand, flowers and all. The petals were put on in a circle individually so they overlapped. they are also stuffed.The circle in the center was appliqued on top of the petals. In the beginning they looked like the top half of a heart, I thought. One block at a time and pretty soon they were all ready to be put together. I did use the machine to put the blocks together, then went back to hand quilting. It was a warm winter for me. She is happy with it.

whoa! I thought the flowers looked "fluffy". I see they're stuffed. Hand quilted. That's a lot of quilting! Looks absolutely wonderful!!!

That is beautiful! After all that hard work, I'd be hesitant to give it to someone, or frankly, even use it!

I hope your daughter realizes how blessed she is to have you for her mother!
