I made this quilt for my neighbour. She has to sell her house because it´s too big and she can´t keep up with all the work anymore. She´s very sad about that and has a hard time coping. I hope this will cheer her up a bit.
The pattern is from the book Two from one jelly roll quilts.

Cute quilt, it should cheer her up, or sadden her more because she will miss you.

If the beauty of the quilt doesn't cheer her up, your thoughtfulness will

If she is a gardener, or has some favorite plants in her yard, best thing you can do for her is offer to keep them until she is set up and ready to transplant them into her new yard.

That's one thing I love about gifting a quilt. Every time someone uses it they will think of you! Beautiful quilt.

Really cute. Love, love, love that backing.

ontheriver 06-17-2011 08:02 AM

I'm sure she will love it, very thoughtful of you. Does your neighbor have any family that can help? I used to go to my parents once a week and do a cleaning cause my mom has bad heart and can't keep up with it. When I built my house and moved I added an apartment for my parents and they moved with me. Now she has smaller place, rent free so they can travel more, and they are close so I can be there for her. They come up to the main house for dinner every night, so she only has to cook when she wants. Mom also quilts so we get along great and since we are so rural she is great company for me.

Jammin' Jane 06-17-2011 09:16 AM

Your quilt is beautiful!
Your neighbor will appreciate your thoughfulness every time she uses it!
God bless you!

Anael 06-17-2011 09:18 AM

Thanks all so very much.
She has family but they´re either too old to help or living too far away and too busy. Besides she doesn´t like to ask for help and wants to stay independent as long as possible.
I gave the quilt to her this afternoon and she didn´t know what to say. She thought it was way too much but she loves it. She told me she´s going to show it to everyone who comes and visits her!

SassySewer53 06-17-2011 09:20 AM

What a sweet way to cheer someone up!! Sorry she had to move. I love the quilt top.
