Gloria's Quilt



I made this twin-size quilt for Gloria's bed with the help of my friend, Carolyn, who helped a lot with the cutting and piecing part. I made it into a comforter cover so that she could be snugly and warm with it. A friend's grandmother and a friend from church embroidered a verse (Romans 12:2) onto it with a really fancy embroidery machine. The only thing I have to do now is put snaps on the comforter and on the inside of the duvet cover to make the comforter stay in place. Gloria picked out the quilt pattern and of course it was the little girls with "dancing dresses" on. Working on this quilt and finishing it has given me more confidence to do more complicated quilts. This one is rotary cutter, not appliqué. Maybe someday I will try appliqué.

To me, this looks professional. I don't know how you did it. Really beautiful, Tams.
