Seventh and final cut

Yesterday the memory quilt went home to its owner.

Linda had some cotton fabric with a narrow irregular blue stripe pattern and it worked out to be perfect for the binding.

The machine quilting added just the right individual touch to the many and varied blocks in the quilt.

A heart shaped motif for the 'little heartbreaker' square and a couple of stars for 'Mummy's little star'.

It was lovely for Linda and me to see this little boy take ownership of his new quilt when his mother presented it to him.

The quilt has coral fleece for the backing and this gives it a soft, velvety touch.  We hope he has lots of happy times with his own special memory quilt.
