About 6 wks or so ago I went to the grand opening of a new quilt store with a quilt friend. It's a tiny shop (as in it has less fabric than I do in my stash!), but I did find this quilt panel and loved it. The store had it made up into a pillow, but I decided to make a wall hanging with it. I added buttons to represent all the places that I've lived over the years.There are 3 buttons that represent more than one town/city - AZ (Phoenix and Mesa), MA (Malden and Woburn - both just to the north of Boston). and TX (Rowlett, Garland, and Greenville).
The back was pieced from the coordinating charm pack, and then bound with a Moda Grunge that went with all of it.
The quilting was designed to look along the lines of a topographical map.
Gratitudes:
1. For all the friends that I've made everywhere that I've lived.
2. For those friends that I've made over the years that I'm still in contact with.
That looks pretty amazing, Moira, and it's personalized so you're keeping it! Yay!
