That is one gorgeous quilt, and your quilting makes it extra special. So happy that your aunt is a survivor.

That is quite simply the most beautiful DWR I have ever seen. You have absolutely achieved the epitome for that pattern. Perfection!

Oh my gosh!!! WOW!!!! That is so beautiful and it's amazing to think of the work that has been put into your Aunt's quilt (both you and her). Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing this treasure. :-)

Hope your Aunt is doing well.

This is georgous!

KimS 04-30-2011 07:03 AM

The words I think of when describing how beautiful something is just don't seem to do this quilt justice! The matter in which this came together makes it even more special. I hope your aunt is doing well and you can do many more quilts together since the two of you make quite a pair. :-)

Thanks so much! I hope she has many years to enoy it too. She picked it up this morning and absolutely loved it. Gave me lots of hugs. :-) :-D

Since finishing chemo several years ago, she's buried two sons. She was inspired to finish it after seeing another DWR I had quilted (not nearly as nice as hers). I'm so glad she did and I know it'll be cherished in her family for years to come. Thanks for all the kind generous comments. It means a lot to me and I've passed them along to her also.

That is just beautiful... and the back is as lovely as the front! What a great job you both did.

Your aunt's color combinations are fantastic and your quilting is beyond beautiful. The quilting emphasizes every detail of this work. Bet your Aunt is already on her way!
