Very pretty. Where do you find the time with all the quilting jobs do? I hope it earns them a lot of money so they can bring the baby into their lives.

It's not only a lovely quilt, but a lovely story. What a great family they must be! Tell them we pray that God blesses them, and we pray the same for you!

It is a pretty quilt, whether in scraps or planned. I love Eleanor Burns' quilts, her patterns make beautiful quilts and her directions are very clear. Thanks for sharing the quilt, it's beautiful. I wish your friend and her family well. It takes a special couple to take in special needs children, and those children are blest to belong to such a family.

At about the same time a Christian family we know announced they wanted to adopt a baby. They have three biological children (Some have left for college already) but they also internationally adopted 2 special needs children. One from Russia and one from China. Well they thought they were finished. It's very spendy and they feel truly blessed as it is. However, another little girl from China is up for adoption that has the rare condition that their daughter has as well...so they thought they would look into everything and they were approved for adopting her. God is working mightily in their lives to make all of this happen.

Anyway they are having fundraisers to try and earn the money to pay for this adoption. I wanted to donate a quilt...so I took some more fabric from the bins that were donated from church and put together another of these quilts..it has just taken me this long to get it quilted....it's going to the binder this week.

I hope it helps them in a mighty way!

Thanks for looking everyone!

Oh This is a quilt pattern from Eleanor Burns...it's from her book called "Still Stripping after 25 years" and I have made it several times...There is just something about this quilt that conjures up good feelings for me.

Have a blessed day!

This is a beautiful quilt--s all your work is. Thanks for also giving us the name of the book as I really like this pattern and would have been asking what pattern it was.

jojosnana 10-10-2011 05:27 PM

Stunning! I hope someone pays a lot for that one. She is a beauty.

GramaLaura 10-10-2011 05:29 PM

I zipped to my fav used book website and got the book used about 5 min after I saw the quilt and learned the name! I believe I have found my winter project! Thank you again for these wonderful photos!
