A quilt for a dear friend at church
 

While I love so many people in my small church, a 95 year old woman has become so very special to me. She is very loving and has adopted me and my family, despite the fact that I have two super wonderful parents already. She was recently in the hospital and although I didn't finish the quilt in time, when I did give it to her she cried. And I found out that she refuses to use it and is instead going to hang it on her wall. I didn't know what pattern to pick when first deciding on making her quilt, but I knew it had to be colorful. She loves blues and purples and always has sequins and other shiny things on her outfits. Luckily I was able to use my stash of batiks, with the exception of the backing material.

Very pretty!

absolutley gorgeous. Love all the color combination

Beautiful. I can see why she cried.

Very pretty and so sweet of you.

That is absolutely a wonderful story.......

love the colors!

you did a lovely job on the quilt nice and colorful

That's one of the great joys of quilting, not only do we enjoy the creative process of making the quilt, we get to experience the total pleasure of giving a quilt to a dear friend or relative who will treasure it as a token of our love for them. Your gift is beautiful!

Beautiful colors.

It's a beautiful quilt combining colorful batiks and the story is also touching. I do hope she decides to use it, giving it the love it deserves. Kudos to you and her ... you're both fortuate people!

Very nice quilt and such a nice thing to do for a special woman.

The Lord will surely bless you with a star in your crown in Heaven. How very kind and generous of you to make such a beautiful quilt, especially with batiks. I can surely see why she cried. I know it warms your heart to see your gift so appreciated....God Bless

Love the pretty colors!

Beautiful quilt and heartwarming story!

I'm sure the quilt means the world to your friend! Makes you feel so good to give to others. The quilt is beautiful and I love the colors in it! :)

Love the color combo and your thread collection LOL

I too love the colors and your kind heart!

Really pretty, love the colors.

Beautiful! Batics?

beautiful. I love the colors, too. Using it as a wall hanging may bring more comfort to her than using it as a cover,

I need a friend like you....lol...its gorgeous!!!

Beautiful quilt. I love the fabric and colorfulness of it.

We can never have too many mothers! What a beautiful gift for her, and your batiks are wonderful in this pattern.

Very nice! What a wonderful gift for a dear friend!!!
