Faded Memories quilt for hospice - 2008 or 2009

55” X 55”

This quilt was made for a hospice for cancer patients in northern IL. It was made using Moda Faded Memories fabric and some other high-quality cottons for the backing. I arranged 5" blocks into a pattern and hand-appliqued some puffy hearts on at the end. It was quilted with Mettler cotton thread in a shade of pink. I did a meandering type design as I machine quilted and did an accidentally unique method of wrap-to-back binding that doesn't show on the front. I think I used a Quilter's Dream polyester batting on this to give it more cuddle potential.
