Quilting in progress....

Today's beautiful quilt has a sweet story.  A customer contacted me and said she had a quilt she had started over nine years ago and wanted to have it quilted.  It is her one and only top every. We decided on some meandering stars.  

You may notice somethings a little unusual for longarm quilting.  She really had planned to quilt this herself.  She did an GREAT job of basting the quilt sandwiches together.  I was impressed with how straight it was.  Time just got away and she wasn't able to finish it.  Maybe we can get her to a class soon and she can start again doing something she enjoyed.  :)

I love that people trust me with their treasures.

Why quilting warms my heart...

Today's project has just meant so much to me.  I got a call from a sweet customer to quilt her new grand babies quilt.  While talking with her, she told me that my great-grandmother made a baby quilt for her oldest son (now grown, married with babies of his own).  There is just something very touching about knowing I am following in my Granny Blacks footsteps.  I hope I am making her proud.

This is a precious, very classy quilt.  I thought the straight lines would help keep the classy look!
