They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
My coworker brought me 20 pictures. I spent one week-end making the top. I had my LQS quilt it and it is awesome. I did it!!! I know Suzanne will treasure her keepsake.
This picture is worth thousand hours? Ok, maybe not a thousand hours. My coworker showed me this picture a year ago of her daughter who would be a senior this spring and I said you could make her a quilt with her dance pictures. My friend gave me that look like yea right I don't quilt. A few weeks later I offered to make the quilt. Remember it was last summer when I said I would do this. When the new year rolled around we started to talk about the picture quilt.
WHAT WAS I THINKING!

Congratulations Suzanne.
I did get my thread holders finished and given as gifts. Here is a picture of them.
The two reds are my red mononchomatic challenge for May. Check it out over at Judy's Patchwork Times.
