The Circle is Complete

Kindred Spirits; Jill's Quilt, is finished!

Jill started this quilt in 2006.  It was a group project of our Cupcake Club.   A group of four quilt friends who met every month and did a number of quilts and other craft projects together.

Here we are will red velvet cupcakes.
This how I inherited the project after Jill passed away in 2014.  The pink angel near her initials broke my heart a little.
After completing her appliuqe' blocks, I added a house in the middle.  I chose purple because Jill loved to include purple in her quilts.   Isn't this sweet?  I'm sure it is Jill, her husband, Scott and their son, Justin.
Here is the label I made.  I miss Jill so much and think of her so often.  All in all, I think she would be pleased.
I quilted them the same, using my extra large fan stencil.    It is available in my etsy shop - click here to see it.   I also have a set of 38 patterns that I used for my quilt available.
Here is my quilt.
This is Mary and her Red and White finished quilt.
I love her unique version.  Very modern, and very Mary.
Susan's quilt:  Animal, Vegetable or Mineral.

Here is Lin McQ's  quilt.  She used my pattern set Kaffe Fassett's and added her own patterns,  How great is that striped border?  
I'll be visiting and meeting her next year in Ohio where I'll be presenting a lecture and workshop.  I can't wait to see her quilt in person!
