I made this quilt for someone very special here on the QB, and couldn't post WIP photos because it was to be a surprise. Now the quilt is in it's new home so here are some photos.
I had so much fun and was so happy to be making this quilt. It brought me great joy!

Oh my, how beautiful. I have two horse friends

wildyard 03-17-2011 07:35 PM

I really appreciate all the kind words but y'all are giving me way too much credit here. LOL. I am just a regular person who met another regular person who inspired me with the thoughts and actions she shared with me. We are not really different than most of you here on the board have shown yourselves to be. Always ready to reach out with help, support, encouragement and ready and willing to give when it is needed. Finding ways to reach out and help others in your own times of trial, trouble and pain. It just happened that my spark was lit that nite, and the quilt resulted. It could as well have been any one of you. Or she, as she is a giver also.
Making this quilt was such a joy and pleasure for me, I'm not sure that she shouldn't be the one getting the kudo's for letting me have so much fun!! LOL

Love it.

akrogirl 03-17-2011 11:26 PM

There is no way I can adequately thank Wildyard for this very special gift. I showed the quilt to DH as soon as he got home, and he was as impressed and moved as I was by the care and thought that had so obviously gone into it.

This board has some truly special people and I am so grateful to be part of it.

SueDor 03-18-2011 04:03 AM

Very nice, and a very nice thing to do.

karen65ae 03-18-2011 04:15 AM

Wonderful and thoughtful gift...

What a special friend you are. The quilt is beautiful and know well loved.

wildyard 03-18-2011 06:44 AM

It's all about the loveeeeeee!!

grocifer 03-18-2011 07:27 AM

Linda -- I had to double check the name and sure enough it was you. What a lovely thing to donate the quilt to a QB member. I'm sure she will treasure it.
Thank God, it is beginning to look like spring is here. Take care. Bev

Windsong 03-18-2011 09:48 AM

The quilt is beautiful and you must have a beautiful soul to give such a loving gift to someone who will no doubt cherish it forever.

Hugggggs Bev, I'm so excited, I can see large areas of my yard !! A few daffodil leaves are peeking thru here and there. So you are right!! It's beginning to look like spring is here, or at least on it's way!!!!!!!!! Yayyyyyyy, Linda

Melrose R 03-18-2011 10:32 AM

Just beautiful! I am a quilt lover AND a horse lover. Your kindness is so thoughtful.

Quilt Mom 03-18-2011 10:35 AM

I saw the thread by the recipient of your quilt first. What a wonderful thing you have done for her, and a fun quilt for her to take when going for her cancer treatments. God bless you real good.
