Lovely quilt.

She will love it, great job.

What a gorgeous quilt, I'm sure your friend will be touched for your thoughtfulness. I too have a friend who moved away and I was heartbroken, however, we have remained friends despite the distance, and we keep in touch so when we do get together it's like we were never apart. When my daughter moved to FL she and her husband became surrogate parents so I didn't have to worry about her having someone to help her out when needed, and they treated like one of their own daughters. Good friends are hard to find, but they are worth their weight in gold.

This is so heartfelt - the design and fabrics speaks volumes. I am sure she will love it forever, like BFF's. Great story too.

thank you guys for such wonderful WONDERFUL words of love! i can't wait to get it quilted and i will put up pics when i do. right now i am trying to figure out how to quilt shauna's for her birthday. i think THINK i have it sorta figured out and ill be putting it to the test here maybe later today. i will share pics of both when i am done ~ !! thank you so much it means more than you know to read your expressions on here. when she gets it, i am going to have her read all of your replies!

O.K......So now I want to be your best friend!! Your quilt is beautiful.

Oh, those fans blow me away. The Ciceley Mary Parker Rose Fairy is a beautiful centrepiece (have it as a cross stitch on my wall). Your friend is very fortunate.

What a lovely quilt and story, I have quilted many of these Michael Miller Fairy Panels and I have always quilted them in straight stitches on the diagonal to form a diamond as the fairy is beautifull on its own. You can search the archives under my name and look for Fairy Quilt for Kate, it is the Morning Fairy but I have also done the Rose Fairy too.

Such a beautiful quilt for your friend. She is sure to love it.

This is a beautiful quilt, you did a great job.
