Since it was thanking them, I sewed various words around the border of the quilt. Like love, caring, etc. Here's one, though I don't know which one since I can't see it when it's small.
One level of quilting was trees
And another leaves. You may be able to see, but I had a different fabric for each brown. I had linen, courderoy, cotton, etc. It was kind of fun.
So, now I have to tackle my brother's. I owe him it from like 5 years ago, and I have him again this year so I'd better get it done, dammit...

Oh that is so beautiful! Both the quilt and the thoughts behind it. I love that you put in words that expressed what you felt and needed. Very, very cool. I bet they love it.
My daughter keeps reminding me that she wants another quilt. (I made her one when she was little.) Once I finish the crochet baby afghans that I am working on, I'm going to get on it. Of course I need to get a sewing machine first. Maybe for Taxmas!
Very nice! And what a nice way to say 'thank you'.
Just beautiful! I can't think of anything much nicer or more personal to receive as a gift. Lucky friends :)
What a beautiful quilt! I love it!
Gorgeous! I'm sure they'll love it. You do really good work.
