Default . I used all her favorite color ax helix quilt : "Entwined"

This is my third attempt to post pictures with narrative. The two previous ones timed out or, for some other reason, would not post till I had logged back in, and by then the posts were gone.

So here's the quick version. I made this quilt for an ESL student of mine. I've tutored her and her younger brother for a year and we are heartbroken to have to part ways. They're moving two hours away.

It was Lilly's birthday present and I used her favorite colors. I quilted special memories into the quilt .
She loved it. Says it's very soft and pretty.

Our hearts became entwined over the last 12 months. Hence the name of the quilt.
