How perfect. He will remember "the good old days" everytime he looks at it.

I think it's amazing and awesome!! I love making adult I Spy quilts and this is a great one.

This is really a different quilt. Made me think of those memory bracelets like Pandora. Love it.

I think it is wonderful

You put it together perfectly. He will be overcome with happiness when he receives it. I can not imagine a long commute like he had for eleven years.

Love all the fabrics. I am sure he will love this.

You spent a lot of time choosing fabric that is meaningful to him, he will smile looking at each block, he will always remember your thoughtfulness. Great thoughts and good work.

This is a really "from the heart" gift. I love that everyone contributed to it. Bet you have some fond memories of each fabric square - did you keep a snippet of them for yourself too?

earthwalker 01-30-2012 06:26 PM

You have done a magnificent job of putting all these amazingly individual fabrics together. I am sure this will bring smiles and many happy memories of his former colleagues. Great quilt, great gift....and thanks for sharing with us.

luce321 01-30-2012 06:34 PM

You all did a great job and I know he will really appreciate the time and effort you put into it. Everytime he looks at it, it will bring back many memories. You all should be very proud of your accomplishment.

biscuitqueen 01-30-2012 08:01 PM

He will think of all of you alot. that is a cool quilt.

lovequilter 01-30-2012 08:52 PM

I love these types of memory quilts, great job !!!!

BarbaraSue 01-31-2012 09:08 AM

That is awesome! Very individualistic. I love the idea of having him sort out who picked what fabric. that could be fun.
this would be a great idea for a retirement quilt also.

blueangel 01-31-2012 10:29 AM

Wow, neat quilt..

grammysharon 01-31-2012 11:06 AM
