I am so glad I saw your gift when I did so I could join in with the compliments. This is so pretty, versatile, and you are so talented.http://www.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/thumbup.png Did you design it or use a pattern? Whichever, wonderful. Wish I could be your neice. http://www.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/hunf.png Keep up the good work!!


It was my design but reminds me a something you might see on a cheerleaders uniform. It didn't look that way in the design process but when I finished the top, that is what I saw. LOL!

What an awesome quilt!! Too bad it's IU and not Purdue, though:D

I don't if I could have done it if the request were for 'black and gold'. LOL

Thank you.

Actually a preprinted fabric was something she didn't want me to use but you are right, you can't find it out there.

My aunt is originally from the Jeffersonville (Clarksville) area. She has lived in Louisville most of her adult life though so she has been putting up with being teased for a long time.

Two of my niece's didn't even send acknowledgements when I sent their first born daughters hand smocked dresses. Needless to say, I quit sending. Love it, even if I'm not an IU fan.

Thank you. I am sorry to hear that you didn't get acknowledgements back on your gifts. I have had that happen a few times too, very heartbreaking. My mom told me the other day, the quilt she made her sister-in-law, is in a closet because her SIL doesn't want it to get ruined. It nearly broke my moms heart when she found out because she knows her SIL loves, she is always telling her shows it off to friends when they come over but that is the only time it sees day light.

This is so beautiful, you did a fantastic job and the reversible idea is great.

You did a fantastic job! She will be thrilled - are we taking bets on which side would be up first!
