Our Lady of Guadalupe Quilt
 
4 Attachment(s)
Gifted to a young priest in our parish. An insanely difficult quilt to make with well starched diamonds shifting crazily. I wanted it to resemble stained glass since he recently gave a lecture on our church's windows. But he seemed to like it.

I'm curious about the images of Our Lady of Guadaloupe also. This is a gorgeous quilt! I know Father will appreciate it.

Krystyna 12-30-2016 12:19 PM

They are printed on the fabric. Happily there was very little waste even with all the fussy cutting.

Beautiful and those bias edges look difficult to manage..

Krystyna 01-04-2017 05:44 AM

Thank you, everyone, for your kind comments. Father did love it. I received a lovely thank you note from him saying that when he saw the front he was a little bit envious of whoever was to receive it. When I did the reveal, he was astonished that I would think of him. Now fingers cross that it doesn't fall apart when he washes it.
