Finally brave enough to show one of my quilts.

I just started quilting in January of 2010, I made this for my Dad's 85 birthday that year. It's a pattern of my own design, it has pictures of his ship in WWII, I listed all the battles he participated in, there's a picture of him as a 17 year old sailor in 1942. The back is a fleece with a Naval insignia. My Dad loved it, I know it's not perfect but it's perfect to him. Thank's for looking.

There is nothing more special than a quilt made from the heart and with heart. Your quilt is lovely and I know your Dad must be as proud of you as you are of him.

What a wonderful memory quilt! :thumbup:

If that was your first quilt then you hit the ground running, my dear. The design, layout, fabric choices and personal touches make it look like it was made by a seasoned quilter, not a beginner. Great job!:thumbup:

Always nice for a person to remember

What an awesome gift with so many memories for him!
|
Oh, my dear!! Your quilt is AMAZING and I'm sure your precious dad was deeply touched by the thought and love that went into it. It's PERFECT!
