I am sure cherishes your creation. It was a lovely thing for you to do.

I too remember Star Trek as a kid but my mom was very strict about bed time so I didn't truly get into the series until it was in syndication.

Yes, this was taken after the game. I'm the red head and the lady with him is his wife Elizabeth. I want to say this was about 10 years ago?

What a fun quilt story! I'm sure they both appreciated the work you put into the quilts. And I, too, wish you had taken close up shots. I'm curious, how many squares did you receive?

I think I received well over 60 squares. I used all of them that were done correctly. Some didn't use fabric paint and others discarded my pre-cut square and made their own which was too big or small. I know I have close up pictures of each square on a disc but have no idea where it would be. I'll have to do some spring cleaning.

I'm a Trekkie too! Fun story and beautiful quilt! The best part of making quilts is finding a good home for them.

How very cool! It is amazing how many people sent back the squares for his quilt.
