A Star Quilt
 
5 Attachment(s)
My oldest daughter lives in South Dakota and one day she calls me and asked me what I charged for quilting and I said why and she said I want you to quilt a quilt for me and I told her I wouldn't charge her (I know she is on a limited budget but I wouldn't charge her regardless) any way she tried quilting this quilt herself and ended up ripping it out. so I just did a some continuous curves and stippling in her quilt. She also brought me three others that I need to piece the backs for her and on one put borders on as she never had the money for borders so I bought them for her. The other three are beautiful quilts hope to get to them soon for her. thanks for looking

Your DD's quilt is lovely. And so is your quilting. Wish my DD had some interest in quilting but she won't even sew on a button. Great job to both of you.

You both do beautiful work.

great quilt and great colors!!!

You did a beautiful job, as did she. We moms usually do jump in to help our kids. None of mine quilt either. That's disappointing.

You two make a great team and a beautiful quilt.

Beautiful work by both of you! Neither my daughter nor my daughter-in-law quilt but I'm teaching all their kids to sew and quilt. I'm thinking that when the daughter and daughter-in-law are empty nesters they will probably pick up the hobby. They are both very creative people, just too busy right now!

I have two daughters and neither of them has any interest in sewing or quilting. They don't even like quilts.

Looks like she got mom's good color sense! I love the palette in this and your quilting compliments it beautifully.

Beautiful quilt and quilting. what a sweet daughter she would make lots of quilts sure if she could afford them. Then again who knows what the future holds maybe it will turn around for her I do hope so.

Gotta take care of our DD's. She did a great job and so did you. A special quilt with love from Mom!

What a beautiful quilt and I love your quilting. Most of the time I'm afraid to "step out of the box", but hopefully I will soon. You do beautiful work. My daughter has the first and only quilt that I hand-quilted before carpal tunnel forced me to stop. I think she was about 8 or 9, picked out the quilt pattern and all the fabrics, my memory has faded over the years, but I believe it had 4 appliqued hearts in each block and was a pattern by Georgia Bonesteel. I used to watch her quilting show all the time and even bought both versions of Spinning Spools, 1 & 2 where you received block/quilt patterns along with directions and even the mylar templates. I think she only made one video and I have that one too. I learned a lot from watching her quilting shows years ago (I'm not saying how old I am, but I'm getting up there years, however, it beats the alternative) and I've been quilting ever since.

I've already replied to your beautiful quilt, but wanted to ask you where your daughter lives in South Dakota. I grew up in the SE corner of SD near the Iowa/Nebraska line and my SIL still lives on the farm where I grew up, and where my great-grandparents homesteaded the farm. Great country and friendly people, I miss it.
