That quilt up there is what I did with some of my time in Omaha. My grandparents are celebrating their 60th anniversary towards the end of the month, so my mom and I collaborated on this quilt to give them. I cut the pieces for about 18 of the 60 stars. Some of them came from a bee my mom participated in a while back. The rest of the quilt top was put together by my mom. So, what was my contribution?
I took the quilt over to A Quilting Place Omaha and rented a few hours on the long arm. I chose a variegated tan/gold thread and a pattern called Come Dance With Me. I think it turned out beautifully.
I've finished burying all the threads and will be spending some time binding this quilt.
I'll be sure to share a better picture of this one when it's all finished up.
