    I made this last year in a beginner's quilting class I took as a refresher. Our friends are having a little girl Feb. 22nd. I had the top & backing...but I still all these years later haven't learned to quilt or bind. So, I took another class beginning machine quilting...oh my that didn't go so well. So over the holidays I had a lot of down time to troll the forum.

    I kept seeing such beautiful work, done by such a bright soul...I just kept thinking, she'd make my vision happen without me saying a word. We exchanged a few messages & I kept putting off sending it so I could get something else done, etc. Well during this time I was looking for a quilt label. I wanted something sweet for this lil girl. Then one day, I ran across a very sweet lady who was starting to make embrodiered items. We chatted and soon I had the cutest little label.

    Now, I knew it was time. Off to be quilted it went. Today it arrived home and I am in love. Charismah you are just simply amazing. Your talent definately flows from your heart to your hands, I am so grateful for how beautifully you quilted this quilt. Jajudd24 your label is the cherry on top! I'm so glad our paths crossed, you helped me in completing my gift.

    This is my 3rd top (first baby quilt) and I couldn't be happpier. I hope her parents love it as much as I do! Again, Charismah, Jajudd24...I couldn't have accomplished this without you guys. Thank you so much...I can't wait to work with you guys again. For those of you looking...I would highly recommend these ladies for any of your quilting and embrodiery needs.

    Thanks for looking!

    How pretty. I just sent Charisma a queen top to quilt for me! I can't wait to see what her magic fingers create! I only had a couple queen tops quilted for me a few years ago, and I wasn't impressed-that was my only experience with someone else quilting my tops. I usually hand-quilt. But I have seen many of her jobs posted here and she is fantastic.
