Patrick requested a colorful quilt. It took me a long time to finish this quilt, and I am very satisfied with the beautiful result. It measures about 75 x 90 after washing.
I quilted this with straight lines and diagonals (the diagonal quilting lines are visible in the picture if you look carefully).
They were surprised and (I think) delighted.
A few more photos (below) taken in the sunshine in my backyard, make the quilt look more faded. In person it looks more like the above image.

I'm not sure what to sew next. I have been interested in sewing clothes for myself this spring, but I have been too busy, and probably too impatient, to slowly learn how to do what I want to do. I need time to make mistakes with patterns and fabric and then try again. I have quilts I want to make, and hope to make some for my nieces before September.
Maybe I should move my sewing machine outside?!

ReplyDeleteWhat a heartfelt and beautiful post! “A Quilt for Brian and Patrick” is a touching tribute that shows how love, care, and creativity can be woven into something truly meaningful. It’s a reminder that learning and nurturing often go hand-in-hand, whether in art or academics. For those preparing for nursing school, a well-structured TEAS Course can offer the same kind of support—helping students build strong foundations with care and intention. Thank you for sharing such an inspiring story!
