Birthday Quilt

You know how people always complain about their mother-in-law? (That actually may only happen in romantic comedies) Well, I may not be married, but my mother-not-in-law is nothing to complain about. She's a very kind, generous woman and this birthday, she gave me the best present ever. She has an amazing talent-- quilting and sewing. She made me a T-shirt quilt from all of my old basketball/high school shirts. Now, not only is this awesome because this one piece of art holds all my memories from my younger years, but it is also awesome because it is beautifully done. I'm completely impressed and couldn't have received a better gift for my 27th. 


Also, since Mr. X can't remember my birthday, it is embroidered for the 14th because that is what he told her was the actual day. Another funny memory on my cozy quilt.

Love.

  3. I am always amazed by people who have the ability to sew/quilt. It is truly a rapidly declining art. Such a great gift to receive!

  4. I hear you. I somehow have the patience to teach h.s./m.s. and scrapbook, but not this- so jealous.
