Gift wrap quilting
3 Attachment(s)
My mom gave me a tv for my quilting room today and this is how she wrapped it. I almost couldn’t tear the paper off! She had to get me started.

So creative! Looks like it took her a long time. I wouldn't have wanted to rip that paper off, either.
|
Very pretty and clever gift wrapping.
|
Great gift and cleverly wrapped!
|
I would have liked to have seen her doing all that!! great idea!
|
Oh cute! She knows you well. Have you made her a beautiful quilt yet?
|
So creative! Is she a quilter, too?
|
Not yet, but I’ve made her smaller things, table runner etc.

That is awesome!
|
That's fantastic!
|
me too! I always say, "Get pictures!" :thumbup:
|
Ha! It's a joke at my house how I save and recycle wrapping paper. This year I was told to retire or use up some that was at least 10 years old...Don't laugh too loudly but I iron tissue paper if it's not torn. Once you cram it into a gift bag, who can tell???
|
Very clever momma you have. I’m not sure I would have the patience.
|
Wow! How beautiful is this! What talent! We need to see some of her quilts!
|
I think I love your Mom!
|
Such a creative Mom.
|
Oh my goodness, what a sweetheart to do that for you. It looks lovely.
|
How creative of your mom!
|
Oh so fun to have your mom do this. Glad you took lots of photos.
|
Oh so clever! I bet she knows you well
|
Since you have some great photos of it, I think you should make her a quilt with that pattern. Use the side as a border. It would be fun.
|
Ditto to all that has been said. Cleverness must run in the family. BrendaK
|
That is one of the most clever wrappings I've ever seen! What a mom!!
|
She made patch work wrapping? I don't blame you for wanting to preserve the wrapping. How clever she is to come up with that.:o
|
That is a true gift of love, so cool!
|
Your mom is wonderful!. She knows the beat of your heart.
|
So clever!
|
That is awesome!
|
OMGosh.....she did flying geese on the edge? How hilarious. Your mom is a hoot. Just wonderful..and, really, a very generous gift inside. Wowzer...

absolutely is! I would take pictures no matter what. If a quilt comes out of this I'd love to see. :thumbup: <3 |

Thanks everyone for all the comments on the wrapping. It was a lot of fun ... though I think I'd sew it if I did it again. Paper was pretty slippery. And it is true ... Pam started delicately picking at it to open it and I had to help her get started. Maybe I was more excited than she was! :)
|
Very clever!
|
Great wrapping job! Great present for you quilting room. And very cool that you and she share the quilting bug!
Whover mentioned ironing tissue paper, I do the same and also save and reuse wrapping paper, ribbons and bows. Got some bows that were here in the house when we moved in in ‘93. Getting kind of squashed now, but they do lend an arty flair to the gifts under the tree LOL! Rob |
