remember this one?... vintage modern hst quilt DONE!

I have to be honest
 this quilt has been finished since May

...eek

it was first posted here.



well, 
Mothers Day to be exact.

It was a gift for my mom, and she loved it. 


and so do I



this quilt was really quick to sew together
 since I used a pre-cut layer cake


{hst tutorial coming soon!}




{love the back drop with the mountains}


the back was created from yardage out of the 
houndstooth print 
and solid med kona cotton grey



the quilting on this was done by me. 

Because this quilt was really big, I'm 
talking queen size big I quilted it will with wonky lines that run throughout the entire quilt.


my only dislike is the quilting. 
my sewing machine doesn't have a wide neck 
so quilting a big quilt on it is a 
challenge.

the lines are slightly curve and cross over in weird places
 but the front and back make up 
for me not liking the quilting.

my binding is out of the floral dots pear
which is a very pretty green with white polka dots
that tops off this quilt!

Recovery.... It's a long road

It has been a very long 2 weeks
I have been in 2 different hospitals, in 2 different states
caring for my husband. 

It is not until now
that I am able to think straight
 and have a chance to make a quick post.

It has been a very emotional and stressful ride 
to see my husband go from well to in extreme pain
All due to the Error of a surgeon.

He has had 2 surgerys within a week of each other and is now
Finally on his way to recovery.

We are in good hands out here at ucla hospital and
Had the Best surgeon in the nation work
On my husband.

He is so strong and has had to endure
Extreme Pain that I would not
Wish on my worst enemy.

He is my hero
