7 years late High School Graduation Quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
I finally finished my daughter's High School Graduation Quilt (she's a RN now :)). It is machine pieced and hand quilted. I've worked on it off and on for 7 years! I'm so excited to have it completed!

It's never too late to finish a project. I bet she appreciates it more now, than she would have 7 yrs ago. : )

What a great quilt for a fine lady. Your hand quilting is beautiful.

It's beautiful. You did a great job on it. Looks hand quilted from the pic and that would have taken me way more than 7 yrs to finish...lol. :)

It is a gorgeous quilt. I always say: Better late then never. I'm sure she'll love it forever.

Isn't it nice to get a UFO done!! Nice quilt. I just finished my oldest UFO - embroidered some designs in 1971 when pregnant with my first - finally added borders, quilted and bound it this year.

She looks delighted, and the quilt looks very warm. Love the colors. The quilting is beautiful on both the front and the back.
