In an incredibly short amount of time, the gals at my quilt shop all made blocks, one of them put all of the blocks together with sashing, a former employee who is now a fabulous longarm quilter quilted it, another gal bound it and Thursday evening, we presented it to our coworker Faith in time for her to have it with her during her first chemo treatment. There wasn't a dry eye in the house as we presented our gift to Faith - a beautiful combination of pieced, appliqued and stitched blocks in the soft Lecien fabrics that she loves. She will be in our thoughts and prayers through all of her treatments.
It's beautiful and so wonderful that so many people were involved in making the quilt. I know it's going to be a great conform to Faith.
ReplyDeleteOMG, that is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! Every time she uses it, she will be wrapped up in all the love and friendship that was sewed into every stitch! I pray that all will go well with her.
ReplyDeleteThat is just the most wonderful!
