Angels
All the binding is sewn down in place on my Angel Story Quilt designed by Anni Downs. I loved every stitch of this quilt and definitely felt an Angel on my shoulder as I worked away on each beautiful block design.

So happy to have it finished.
The label is on and I used a vintage doiley that belonged to my friend Gaye which was the reason for making this quilt.....in her memory. Gaye loved Angels and even had a special Angel Christmas Tree she decorated each festive season. This book was a gift from her and I felt compelled to make the quilt when she passed away last year.
I just know that she loved this quilt design and would have adored the Paris Fleamarket fabric that I used to make it.
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx

Oh Michelle, it IS so very beautiful! And such a special story too. Your friend did a lovely job of the quilting. I too love to use vintage doiley's for quilt labels and yours is perfect because your friend gave it to you. I hope you have somewhere special to display it?
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful Michelle. I have been following along as you work on these blocks but I did not know the special story behind it of your friend Gaye. That is just that extra special I think. You will certainly think of her everytime you look at your beautiful quilt.
