Joy's Parting Gift |
Wishing I had made the 'ties' a bit longer but too late now. It was made for a friend who moved out of state and I had all our our friends sign parting wishes for her. I was inspired by a pattern I saw, but didn't like the large size it made, so I just created my own. I sewed Jelly Roll strips together, adding a wide 'ribbon' 1/3 of the way over. Then I cut 1/3 off the top of the strip set and added another 'ribbon'. Added a bow and voila! Done! I quilted it with various size swirls. And it's on it's way.
