There’s a gorgeous lady that I work with
who has been battling with her health for the last little while. All of us that
work with her were keen to do something to let her know just how much she is
missed and loved in our office so we decided to make her a quilt. Since most of
the ladies I work with aren’t quilters, at times this meant stitchery lessons
in the office…. which our boss was very lenient with.
We decided on a pattern I had sewn a couple
of times before - ‘Friendship’s heart by The Birdhouse’ with a few changes to
the wording to make it more appropriate. We also changed the Cat block to dogs
which Linda loves and used Hatched and Patched drawings for inspiration.
We backed it in flannel so that it would be
nice and cosy and personalised it with a special message.
We’re all so thrilled to have Linda well
again and back at work!
Cheers

What a lovely quilt for your friend. How lovely you taught the others to sew so they could have be a part of the making of it.
