Hi There!
One of my very first REAL quilts....
FINALLY finished - thanks to Gilbert and "Bertha", our Longarm machine!!!
July 1st, during our Yard Sale, I managed to put the final stitches on it's binding and yesterday morning, put the last stitches on it's label.... 'cause it ain't finished till you've sewn on that label, right?
*grin*
Gave this quilt away to my neighbour's son. He graduated LAST YEAR and I had promised myself that I would make him a quilt for his graduation.
Isn't it funny how you think time stands still for everyone else?!?!? I thought he was graduating THIS year, or the NEXT - till I asked his Mom and she said, "Oh no. Billy graduated LAST year and he's already completed his 1st year of university."
HOLY GUACAMOLE! WHERE DID THE TIME GO, EH!?!?!?
Well, actually, it's probably a good thing that I got mixed up. Billy, the recipient got a MUCH nicer quilt, now that "Bertha" came into our lives!
*grin*

Nice work! That is cute fabric and the quilt looks great. Happy 4th.
Oops! I knew as soon as I hit the button that Happy 4th wouldn't work for Canada. LOL
Hi Rosa, I see you do Long Arm quilting people? From the photos and your trip to Calais I am guessing you maybe live in Saint John? I have been enjoying your posts for the past several weeks, since I found your blog. Have a great weekend!
A great finish. Good for you, Gilbert, and Bertha!
Rosa - Congratulations on finishing this UFO!
What a beautiful quilt and wonderful gift to give Billy too!
