    Default Finished for my Dear MIL

    My 77 y/o MIL has not sewn or quilted for many years and recently asked if I would help her make a quilt for their bed. Of course! She shared a magazine picture of a quilt she liked so I drew up a similar block pattern in EQ8. She picked her fabrics, I cut/prepped everything and she assembled her blocks. It was left with me to add borders and quilt for her. I decided to add ruffles and make a few shams that I'm sure she will love. I'm so pleased with the finish because it is just perfect for her taste and decor. Thanks for looking
