Family Project
 
1 Attachment(s)
My niece and her daughter (my great-niece) worked for a week with them helping sew the blocks, cutting them apart and laying it out the way they wanted it and then I sewed it all together, sent it out to the long arm quilter, and then I finished the binding by hand. Then, they came back a month later and we made pillow shams to match it. Here is the picture of the finished quilt.

How much fun is that! The quilt and shams are very striking for sure. I really like the way the borders and binding is done. But I think the fellowship is the very best part.

Looks like you all made a bright and cheerful quilt.

that is awesome! the family helping really makes it special. The quilt is great too!! My niece helped me on one and I really enjoyed it - and when she took the quilt home with her it means alot more to her than if I just gave it to her.

You made a beautiful quilt and lots of happy memories.

A beautiful quilt and such fun times making memories. The quilt has a 1970s feel to it but the blocks are large and modern. It is very nice.
