    MsSage....our CO is leaving, so the ward room (officers) asked my hubby if I could make a quilt. They had him call me and give them a price. I told them $100 plus the cost of materials. I started it Wed, they wanted it today (Sat) then said, Mon/Tues would be good. Then Friday night, hubs comes home and says....oh, they want it for tomorrow. UGH! So, needless to say, I got it done.
    I won't do another with a timeframe like that, but I really like the CO's wife, she's a riot, and since it was mainly for her, I agreed.

That is WAY to cheap for a wonderful quilt like that! But, I guess for a friend like that, I think maybe I can see, but still......waaahhhhhh...to give up that one...for that price....... :cry: :cry:

    Thanks Patti
    I know, it was for a good cause. I felt bad charging because all they really had to do was ask me and I would have done it for free lol
    Like I said, I really like Jane, she's a great lady and she does so much for the community where ever she's at.
    I enjoyed making it and my hand sewing for the binding is coming out better and better! :) :) You could hardly see any of the stitches!

    Thanks Cajun. I just love that fabric. I'm going to keep a lookout for it and if I do find more, you can bet your bippy (whatever a bippy is) I'm going to buy all of it again! lol
    The label is just from my machine. It has the design, actually 3 of them so you can put the initials in the middle. Sometimes I switch out the design and will use one of the others, but the one I used is my favorite.

    I am so glad that the quilt was well received! And thanks for the story behind it! My computer has been acting up and I am on a borrowed one, so have less time to catch up! I DID vote for thje rolling hills fabric. Will have to check at the BF to see if they have any of that fabric. Mine only sells flats. :lol:

    Terri, that quilt is just awesome! Can't believe you got it done in such a short time and with your husband still breathing!

    You did a marvelous job! :D
