Happy New Year! It’s 2009! Since I was away from blogging for a good chunk of 2008, let’s do a bit of review. Then we can move on to starting the new year fresh.
Do you remember this? Like I said in that post, I’m kind of a last-minute girl. And I made it all the way to attaching the binding on this quilt. Then life came smashing along and the quilt got set aside with just a little work left to be done. I finally did get it finished and delivered to it’s rightful owner, my brother, in 2008. It was my first real, quilted-not-tied, bed-size quilt. It was beautiful, and it was so hard to give it away. But I know that it will be loved. Here it is, in all its finished glory. (Ignore the messy bedside table and the fact that my bed has no headboard. And the subpar lighting.)

“What do you mean this isn’t my quilt?”
Beautiful work. I can’t believe you haven’t been sewing all your life.
Thank you! I know creativity is in my genes. Sewing must be included in that. :)
I know The Boy treasures this quilt. Who wouldn’t? :)
Another beautiful quilt! I’m impressed!
