Something for my Sis. . .

who needs the comfort of a quilt! Going through a knee replacement won't be very pleasant but I hope the comfort of a bright and happy quilt on her lap will make her smile. It would me. Last week I made the Family Room Quilt from the book Simple Home by Sweetwater.
I used a layer cake from the Moda line Bliss from Bonnie and Camille that I have had since it first came out. I never could find the right project for it, but an occasion like this is well deserving of such cute fabrics. It's such a cheerful, happy quilt I think. I hope it brings some comfort and smiles to Collette the next couple of weeks. Here's wishing a speedy recovery to my sweet sister.
Marked with one of my labels so she will always know my thoughts and prayers are always with her. Love ya, Sis.

Thank you so much, Shannon. I love my quilt and appreciate so much the love that went into it. The colors make me so happy, and inspired some new accent pieces in my living room. We are having a family picture sitting today, and everyone is wearing colors in the quilt. Won't that be cool? Thanks again, I love you.
