My sister Eileen just moved from Rhode Island to Michigan. She has wonderful quilting buddies in Rhode Island who sent her off with this beautiful quilt. All the blocks have special memories of their years together. There's even a selvage block in memory of the fun we had when I visited them. Isn't this an awesome quilt?
And here's my little sister Eileen when she saw the quilt. Now she lives in Haslett, MI. The friends who gave her this quilt also gave her a gift certificate for a quilt shop in her new town. Are quilters sweet or what?
Der Quillt ist ganz prima geworden.

Quilters are amazing people. They share their time, resources and love. Thanks for sharing this. :)
ReplyDeleteQuilters are generous loving people, and I'm sure Eileen treasured her buddies too. What a beautiful quilt depicting so many memories! There's a lot of love there!
ReplyDeleteooh! Love the collection of prints in the Hawaii block!
ReplyDeleteYou have to be a good friend to have good friends. I bet they are going to miss her as much as she will miss them. What a lovely gift, all that loved turned into a quilt. I hope she easily builds a new life with quilters in Michigan :0)

Quilters are caring and sharing people. The quilt is amazing. Your sister is in my neck of the woods now and can show where she lives with her hand.
