    This is a baby quilt I made for a woman who does my facials a couple of times a year. She's expecting her first baby, a girl, and she's very excited about it. I did a meandering free motion quilting design--my second attempt at free motion quilting. And I made the label with Printed Treasures and my ink jet printer. I barely know this woman, except on a professional level, and so I didn't really want to put my name on her baby's quilt, and I don't know if she's chosen a name for her baby yet. I decided just to put washing instructions. That way she knows the quilt is to be used!

    As the person who took the time and expense and use of her talent to make this gorgeous quilt plus was kind enough to do it, your name should be on the quilt. Any one so generous of spirit deserves their name on their work. Plus we do sign works of art. And that is what quilts are.

    You really do well on your quilting. And I love the colors too
