Mary's Quilt
I've been making quilts for about a year and a half. I started out making specifically charity quilts, but my love of quilting grew and grew. I talk constantly to my daughter about the quilts I've made and she told me one day that she wanted a quilt, too. So, I asked her to choose her fabric. She's a Downton Abbey fan, and she chose the Dowager Princess line by Kathy Hall for Andover Fabrics. I chose a trusted favorite pattern, Turning 20, but that wouldn't fit her Queen-size bed. So, I turned 20 into 30 and made it just the right size. I made coordinating throw pillows and pillow cases (using Jenny's tutorial). I had such a great time making it. When I got it back from my longarmer, I couldn't believe how heavy it was!! I was pleased, but my daughter was more so, and that is worth more than anything!!
