Debra's Wedding Gift To Daughter

Debra's Vintage quilt      

We were asked by a church member if we would quilt one of her mother's quilt tops for a special wedding gift for her daughter. The top looked to have been paper pieced with some hand stitching and some by machine.


















































  It was a challenge, for sure as many pieces were cut on the bias and stretched. Blocks were different sizes so the top did not lay flat. I stitched some leaders to top and bottom so it could be quilted right up to the edge.

My DH did the quilting and did an amazing job with it, using a close meandering stitch. She was very happy with the results.

We were not able to attend the wedding but I did attend the shower and took a few pictures.
