Thankful

I gifted my SIL's quilt to her for Xmas. She loved it!



It's a twin-sized quilt for her home in Geyserville, CA. She wanted something bright and a little folk-art-ish. These Alison Glass fabrics seemed to fit the bill. My SIL is very devoted to hearts so I had Melissa use an overall heart quilting pattern. The back & binding fabric, from the Me & You collection by Melissa Averinos, also has little hearts on it.


It looks pretty good on my SIL's guest bed too!
