Life is a dance
 
3 Attachment(s)
I just finished my first of two quilts I'm making for Christmas gifts (and I sandwiched and basted the other this morning). This quilt is for my ballroom dance coach and his family. He has done so much for me this year and I wanted to give back to him so of course I would make him a quilt. Even though it is simple I'm very happy with how it came out.
