I made this quilt just to practice because I'm not great at cutting out material or getting my seems to line up. I didn't get that 100% here, but I probably got 90%, so I'd say that's an improvement. I decided to give it to my friend who's moving away. So, while "quilting" it, I used a fancy setting on my sewing machine and "embroidered" GALSS (our group's name), Jewel (my friend's name) and SSC (our church) onto the quilt. The only thing I forgot was my little tag that says "handmade with love by...."
I love the colors on this- and I like the less than perfect seams because it shows that a real person and not a machine made it. Your friend will love it.
