DWR is Finished
 

My hubby has encouraged me to make a DWR since I started dragging him to quilt shows, years ago. I started this quilt over a year ago. During the process my hubby became very ill and I almost lost him. There were times that it was so difficult to work on this quilt that I was ready to give up. Other days it was my sanity. This quilt is in no way perfect. But it is a pure labor of love. It is based on the Egg Money Quilts DWR. The quilt is queen sized and was pieced and quilted on my Janome 6600. Hubby is on the road to much better health and a new normal and he loves the quilt. And is all that matters!

It 's a perfectly wonderful quilt! Beautiful! So glad your hubby is doing better.

it's gorgeous...you did a beautiful job. glad he's on the mend.

Your quilt is beautiful, and I'm so glad your husband is improving.

came out beautifully, I remember when i started to take my son to quilt shows when he was 3. He asked for a white on white and a DWR. So far, I made the white on white with scalloped borders. that DER is still waiting. So glad you got your done. it came out great.

your quilt is great! I am glad your husband is doing better. I just finished my first DWR this morning - yay! I finished mine with a scalloped edge but I do really love the border you put on yours

Beautiful quilt! So glad your husband is better!

Hmm, can't get pic on my iPad! I swear since the update this thing is possessed! But I'm sure your DWR is gorgeous and happy to hear dh is well.....

Such a beautiful quilt! No wonder he loves it!! I like how you quilted it too! I'm just learning some more complex designs for FMQ, but am trying to finish a quilt I started back in 2010 that my DH has made me promise to finish before making any others. It's huge, but I'm getting there! I know how you felt though!!

It is a beautiful and happy quilt. So glad he is better and that he loves it.

Wonderful quilt. I love the colors. Great job.

Very bright and cheerful to brighten you husband day! Good job!!!!!

LOVE it....love the quilting also...glad to hear Hubby is doing well....

So glad to see that your hubby is doing well. Your quilt is gorgeous...such bright and cheery colors. You have done a beautiful job. The quilting must have been quite a challenge, too, and was a definite success.

Its beautiful! A great achievement, well done.

I love your quilt! How did you make the white border? Is that a pattern? I've been working on a dwr quilt for awhile now and thought a border like that would be perfect but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

You did an outstanding job on it. Just beautiful!

I just added the white border. I used the Eleanor Burns method of sewing the arcs on to squares. So, adding the border was easy for me.

Couldn't ask for more, beautiful quilt and hubby getting back to healthy. What a wonderful combination.

The Labor of Love Quilts are always the best in my eyes, especially when they have a story behind them , why they were made and where they came from at the time of your life. Glad your hubby is on the road to better health. Your quilt is beautiful. I crocheted the DWR for my son and DIL and it was a challenge. To make it as a quilt is on my TO DO list someday , when my health improves.

A labor of lve that created a memory. So glad your DH is on the road to a better life.
