    I’m so happy with this quilt my sister asked me to make her a quilt so I decided I would do it for her birthday this year in October. This was what she asked me for you decide if I delivered. “I want pink, birds, music and bible verses. “ I use pearl cotton for the quilting for a heavier rustic look and I really like how it turned out. The back is flannel I want this to be something she curls up in every night to read or watch TV or work on her Grandma’s flower garden quilt. I have been teaching her to English paper piecing she is hooked.

    Wonderful.

    I had assumed, incorrectly, as it turned out, that you had written the psalm verse on that square.
