One down, one to go
I finally finished my Mom's Christmas/Birthday present last night!!!
Still have to sandwich my Dad's quilt today. I had each of their quilt tops almost done at Christmas....only needed the borders. Glad I didn't put the borders on....Needed to make these into FULL size instead of TWIN as the beds they have are higher off the ground because of being similar to a hospital bed. Also, Mom won't need to use a bedspread with these quilts.
The quilting took awhile due to my only having a mid arm machine....and lots of moving it around. But glad that one is done and delivered...can't wait for Dad's to be done.

The 2 blues with the dots are also part of the collection. Pale Blue/turquoise and white is Barcelona by Bethany Reynolds.
