My latest project The Beatitudes
 
3 Attachment(s)
This is a quilt I am making for a coworker who was force to retire due to medical issues. I am making her a quilt which will have signatures of all our coworkers. I will add a 3" middle border (beige fabric for signing) and a 5" or 6" outer border (green w/yellow flowers) to make it a lap quilt. The original size is a wall hanging at 39" x 48" from Block Party Studios. All fabric is from my stash. Not sure what fabric I will use to back it with. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I think it's a lovely quilt. The inspirational verses are very uplifting and her co-workers signatures will make it more personal. It will be a beautiful gift.

Very thoughtful gift. It will be beautiful. I like using part of my front on the back. If I had enough fabric I might use your teal/gold as backing.
