The quilt is called "Written in Thread" and I have all the embroidery finished except for the border and I will do that after the center of the quilt is put together. It is rather like putting a puzzle together in a way because the directions for the whole quilt have not been that good and I have been "winging it" most of the way through! One of my friends (Debra) at Sit and Sew on Tuesdays is doing this quilt also and she has the same complaints-so we are working on it together and crying on each other's shoulder~! But it will be nice when it is finished. The picture shows a few of the finished blocks. Two of the sayings are "Handmade is Heartmade" and "Blankets of Love."
It's like a day in spring outside --temps in the 70's------- sure different from the cold spell we had a couple of weeks ago---I'll take this any day!
Let quilting help you make someone smile!

Looks like it will be beautiful when it's done! Good luck getting all the pieces put together! :0)
I REALLY like the look of this one! It's too bad the pattern isn't written better - that's why I'll never write one, lol.
The 70's....soooooooooo jealous....
I have made this too and if you look at my blog post about it you can see I had a few issues with it also. It is lovely though and I really enjoyed making it. Looking forward to seeing yours all done.

Love this!! I love to fit the pieces together, just a wonderful pizzle...
It is going to be a beautiful quilt when you finish. So sorry to hear you are having issues with the pattern.
Beautiful work! Hang in there with the pattern. Thanks for stopping by our blog to post a comment about "Gidget Gobbles" giveaway. Give Buster a smooch from Gidget. ;-)
