    Default Molly's HS graduation quilt

    Our niece Molly graduated HS in May. It seems just a few weeks ago that she was a pre-teen and we made this one for her: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...ed-t76227.html

    She wanted something modern to take to university with her, so this is what we did. I have posted unfinished pics of this one before because of the quilting thread. It ended up turning out really pretty. We hope she likes it.

    This modern look is a first for us.

    Good shot of one block and quilting

    The quilting sort of disappears in the back, but we love the main fabric. The thread is yellow on the back and veriegated grey on the front.

    Thanks for looking.

    She will love it, I'm sure of it. The back is just as beautiful as the front. It will be like having two quilts.

    Of course she will love it... what's not to LOVE? It's gorgeous. Love the backing fabrics, too.

    Nice quilt for a college student. The colors are so nice and the pattern so modern. Great quilt and I know she will enjoy it.

    I absolutely adore how the quilting thread wound up looking it's perfect for this quilt! Great job.
