Blue and White Quilt

I made this for my neighbor, She had a quilt from her grandmother that she loved so much but was damaged beyound repair and very sad she had to throw out. So I made this for her. She cried when I gave it to her as a surprise gift.

I think there's nothing more beautiful than a blue and white quilt. Very nice!

This is beautiful.

That is beautiful! Those are some of my favorite colors in a quilt. Love the pattern too. What is the name of the pattern? Great story about your lovely neighbor. You are a good friend to have done such a thoughtful thing. God bless you.

Stacey 12-01-2012 09:27 AM

I love, love this!! Love the pattern and who wouldn't love blue and white. My niece is making a quilt in this pattern but it's totally scrappy.

DebraK 12-01-2012 09:28 AM

I would have cried too. It's a beautiful quilt and you have a generous spirit.

lynnie 12-01-2012 09:32 AM

Oh so pretty, love how the blue pops

Michelekolt 12-01-2012 09:34 AM

Thank you everyone, my neighbor is a blessing too, Over the years she has helped me with car pooling my kids to school as I was working and couldn't always pick them up from school. Lisa (my neighbor) would never take gas money or any other gifts. When she told me about her grandmothers quilt I finally knew something I could make for her and she wouldn't refuse. I was right when I took the quilt over to her house, tears rolled down her face and she said "No one has ever made me something so thoughtful" I was happy to finally repay the favors she has done for me over the years.

I also would like to know the pattern name. I bought a group of blues from people on the board and they are waiting for me to find a pattern and I think that is the one.

Sapphire_Rae 12-01-2012 09:46 AM

Ummm, where do you live? lol ... I want to be your neighbor. That is a beautiful quilt!!

jackied 12-01-2012 10:08 AM

What a lovely thing to do for your neighbour.

Michelekolt 12-01-2012 11:25 AM

I made this from a tutorial from missouri star quilting here is a link. http://quiltingtutorials.com/basic-s...awesome-quilt/ The fabric was from 2 jelly rolls from keepsake quilting and yardage from Joann Fabrics.

RedGarnet222 12-01-2012 11:26 AM

This quilt takes Love thy Neighbor to the next level. Bless your heart. I hope she at least cut a piece of her grandmother's quilt and framed it.

JJean 12-01-2012 12:12 PM
