The quilt is done! Thanks to help from my mother-in-law, I was able to finish my grandma’s 90th birthday quilt with very little stress.
I love using the girls’ artwork for projects like this, and we’ll definitely be doing more with the fabric pastels.
We’ll be celebrating a very special birthday today — hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Wow – that is awesome. I love the girls’ artwork.
Amy,
This quilt is amazing! So beautiful and contemporary. Pure genius to use long strips of fabric and your blocks. Wow! A picture of this will go on my inspiration wall for sure. A question about the pastels? How do they wash?
how do you add art work to a quilt? I love it! It’s gorgeous!!!
I’m sorta speechless about this quilt. I love it…but those words don’t quite wrap their arms around how much this quilt will probably be cherished…I love how you added in the artwork!
I love it! Makes me want to give quilting a try.
It’s beautiful – good for you!
Lovely. I love that you included your children’s artwork.
I love your quilt. Is it the kind of quilt a beginner could sew? I am also wondering how well the fabric pastels wash. I’ve been meaning to let my girls color with fabric markers. Are the pastels different?
gorgeous work. I love the drawings well done all of you!!
This is really a wonderful gift.
