This is the wall quilt my Mother-in-law made for me. It's mostly blue but also has my other favorite color yellow. My Mother-in-law is quite the accomplished quilter and has made hundreds of them for many lucky recipients. She is a very kind and generous lady! Now go visit some other Blue Monday posts. Cindy

Cynthia,
ReplyDeleteI just love your quilt! The colors are just beautiful together. I think it is one of the most lovely quilts I ahve seen. And so special that you know personally the creator.
I love your charming cottage too. What a great blog! Thanks for commenting on my blog! It's my roadmap to your place! I am going to add myself as a follower. I love it!
And I love new friends! Thanks Cynthia!
Very pretty. I love quilts. I tried to make one of those 'weekend quilts' that you sew together on the sewing machine and finish it in a weekend. Well....after several months had gone by....and I was still working on it....I gave up. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy...that is a beautiful pattern on your wall quilt...your MIL did a great job of matching the soft yellow on your wall too! It is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy at Applestone! I love the look of blue and yellow together. Quilting is a very desirable talent. It is highly desirable to have someone close make a quilt for a gift. You are fortunate.

Hi Cindy! You know I love the colors in your quilt! I come from a family of mountain women who quilt...except me! Maybe I need to learn! lol Also...congrats on your win! That Gloria is a sweetite, isn't she? I especially love the little bunny bowl!...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteCindy, I love that quilt. Those colors are so pretty. How great that your m-i-law made that. laurie
ReplyDeleteHow lucky to have a quilt made by a family member. So much work goes into them. I have made just one..yes..just one. Took a quilting class...and I chose to make one to fit my KING size bed..to the floor. I worked and worked. My eyes went bad finally..and one day I bundled it up..and drove it to a nearby church and the ladies finished it in the basement. It was SO big..(to the floor AND over the pillows..that it took them over a year to finish it. Yep...and it is in my bedroom lovingly packed away with my mementos of Pat. He loved that quilt.. :) I learned...and never forgot how much work goes into quilt making. My hat is off to those that quilt and to those who have and cherish them. Thanks for sharing..your lovely quilt on this Blue Monday!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Mona

ReplyDeleteHi Cindy, What a beautiful quilt made by your MIL and what a lovely gift from Gloria, have a wonderful week, Kathy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt! My mom makes quilts and keeps running out of people to give them too. I keep telling her to make me one and I'll give it away on my blog. I think she likes the idea so I have my fingers crossed! Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy!Very pretty quilt. What a precious heirloom! This is something I have always wanted to learn to do. Have a great week!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt! I tried quilting when I was younger and just didn't have the time. I fear by the time I retire and have time, I won't have the eyesight! LOL! I really admire folks who do quilt. Since I made a few, I REALLY appreciate all the work that goes into them. Yours is a real keepsake! :D Jewel
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful baby shower. The quilt is awesome. Hugs, Terrie
