I made this quilt for my daughter who is graduating in June. She graduates on her 19th birthday. I am so proud of her. She is going on to college to become a nurse. I had never made a quilt bigger than a lap or baby quilt. This one is still small compared to others I have seen. But it is the biggest one I have ever attempted. Thank to clynns for helping me out even if I ended up changing the pattern so I could get it done in time. lol I will do the blocks the way she told me and make another quilt someday. I was able to do them. But it just took me forever and I need more practice. But I thought I would share it. I really like how it turned out.

Hard to get a pic of the whole quilt. lol

this pic is closer so you can see the dragonfly and flowers I quilted and the embroidered flowers on the red square.

Your quilt is beautiful and you did a great job! Love the pattern and can't imagine that there is something more difficult to do on this quilt. It looks beyond my skills.

Thank You for all the wonderful comments. And yes I am so very proud of my daughter. She is a hard working young lady. And I know she will be a wonderful nurse. She just has the right spirit in her that nurses have. Not just anyone can be a nurse and be good at it. lol

What a great job on your daughters quilt.
Love the colors and of course the bees.
Don't forget to put a label on the back.
Good job.
