I'VE CREATED A MONSTER!

i have been trying to talk my friend joni into starting a quilt for some time now......i've told her that she would love it and the final results are very rewarding......
~
she told me i was crazy....or something like that.....
~
so she finally decided to give it a try......and she enjoyed it!
here she is sitting at my machine with the walking foot in place working on the quilting.....
and here is the almost finished piece......i wasn't able to get a picture of the quilt with the binding turned and hand sewn in place....it was after all 2:00 in the morning and i was getting ready to kick her out for the night!! i was tired but hated for her to stop working on it until she was at a place where she could finish up at home with the hand stitching.......
~
so what do you think??
~
she is now thinking she needs to make something to hang on the wall behind her sofa in the family room.....were trying to come up with some ideas that won't be too overwelming for the second quilt!
~
so.....joni if you are reading this....i am very proud of you!! i've taught you to sew and now we are starting you on the quilting! you are a natual. it is always so much more fun sewing when you have someone to sit and visit with!
