I Was Gifted Quilt Tops

I’m so blessed. I was gifted 3 adorable tops with backing and a Christmas panel. Brittany, co-owner of Stitches of Love, knew that I had a new (to me) longarm and I needed lots of practice. She went through her old UFO stash and gifted me with these tops with the backing to practice quilting with my longarm.

The colors are bright and wonderful.

Stitches of Love is a great place to work. Julie and Brittany, a mother -daughter team, have created a happy and caring place to work. February 28, I will be celebrating my third year working part-time at Stitches of Love.

The only condition with the tops is to show Brittany the finished quilts. Now, I have to figure out the quilting design. Any suggestions?

  1. Do you give them back to her when they are quilted? I love the first one the most. I have one like the last one waiting to be done. It’s been around awhile. I have no ideas. How to quilt the final product is always a tough decision for me as well. I have to do mine on my home sewing machine. Looking forward to seeing the pattern you choose.

    1. No. She doesn’t want back but wants to see what I do with them. I’m going to a quilt show this month and taking a few quilting design courses. I hope it will help me with ideas.
