I made this quilt as a retirement gift for a dear friend I have known since childhood. It highlights her love of Asian fabrics and her own glowing loveliness. It was machine quilted, machine appliqued and embellished with crystals, fabric painting and inks. My friend's gown was made from satins and tulle; her earrings are tiny crystals and her pendant is a small bead on a "chain" of doubled metallic foil thread. The misty wisps in the sky are sheer organzas and tulle. The stars in the sky are all individually glued. I am giving it to my friend today and hope she likes it. |
Wow!!! It's gorgeous! What a lucky friend!
|
Holey Moley! It's stunning!
|
I can feel the love with which you made this wonderful quilt for your friend. It shows in every stitch and item you have added. It's marvlous as well must be your friend to have earned such love and friendship from another person. Blessings for each of you. Hugs and smiles.

My friend was overcome by a wellspring of emotion knowing that this was made especially for her. She has a few days left at work training her replacement and was through for the day when I met her for lunch to present her with her surprise, but she drove back to work right away after lunch to show her colleagues. She couldn't wait for the next day. This quilt is symbolic of my love for her and a tribute to our lifelong friendship. Only the two of us knew why we were blubbering over our cobb salads. |
Wow, lucky friend, she better like it..lol

She loved it. When I presented it to her, I felt I had a whole cheering section rooting for me on this forum. Thank you, all, for all your compliments and kind words of support. |
