    Default My Daughter calls it the OLD LADY QUILT

    A client gave me this quilt to longarm quilt, sorry I couldn't get picture of whole quilt, as my holder upper was gone. I do not know the name of the pattern, but when my 15 year old daughter saw it she said that looks like something an old lady would make, all I could do was laugh at her, she just says what she thinks. I went out of my comfort zone in the borders on this quilt, but from much inspiration from this board I am starting to do that a lot more. Thanks for looking.

    Well compared to your 15 year old daughter....I am an old lady, and I really like this quilt. You did a fabulous job on the quilting too.

    Beautiful!!! I remember when I was a teen I did not care for the old fashions either, as we age we seem to gravitate to them.

    I'm an oldie (but a goodie... LOL!) & I love, love, love this quilt! I also love that your daughter speaks her mind (take it from one who does the same...)! Oh, I remember having a 15-year-old & I feel your pain... LOL! Thanks for sharing the quilt & the story with us!

    Both the quilt and the quilting are beautiful!! Glad you are gaining confidence in your quilting skills. I think you did a marvelous job especially love the borders. (Guess I'm an old lady too)
