I am in the process of writing a book about it with a goal to have it finished and copyrighted this year. I hope you will let us know when the book is ready and how we can obtain it. I'm at the top of the list of buyers! Are you self-publishing? |

I am impressed with your photo re-creation in the centre panel, and even more so when I read that you taught yourself to do it! Let me know when your book comes out, Dawn. I would be very interested! thnx... |
What a wonderful memory in fabric. It will last a lifetime and you child will cherish the time 'in quilt' for years to come. Thank you for showing.

That is WONDERFUL. Stirs up some emotions for me, and that's a GREAT thing! :D

Very nice..:)

Very nice..:)

making a panel from the picture is really great! the entire quilt is terrific. do you have a fabric that has small snowflakes for the last border? that way it can be narrow.
|
Well you have my vote!!! I love it, you did an awsome job on the photo part especially. WOW!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
I would go with the medium light blue in the first border. Just a sliver so you know it's there.
Love the mittens with the string. I used to have those. Brings back some memories. |
Maybe one of the blues
