ALMOST WORDLESS WEDNESDAY
This was one of my first attempts at art quilting. I made this for my sister, Peg. This is my depicition of our childhood home with us dancing in the flower gardens. There was a long soapstone sidewalk that was surrounded on each side with daffodils.
This is a close up of the title.


Oh my gosh! That is so cool! I love the colors and the theme.
Wow! I hope this wasn’t a surprise. Wonderful job on it. You are very talented.
Thanks. It was a surprise years ago, but I never even took pics. She recently took them and sent them to me.
SuziCate, this is beautiful! Lucky Peg.
I love the kitty checking it out in the last photo!
Thanks!
HAHAHA I hasn’t even noticed LaLa was checking it out when I took it. Good eye Maureen! And yes, I am very lucky and SC is very talented.
SuziCate, That was such a lovely surprise when you sent it. I LOVE my quilt. Hubby is very protective of it! I actually need to hang it up and NOT use it. Thank you again and thank you for being such a great sister. You know I love you!
You’re welcome and LY2!
wordless wednesday
Mine wa “almost” wordless! Or is that your comment…wordless?!
I made that button for Wordless Wednesday when you asked me about it and offered it to the people who seemed to be keeping track, but I never heard from them. Maybe they didn’t get the message.
It’s completely wordless. I changed the last image; it was supposed to represent asking for donation, which happens when they send labels and calendars in the mail.
I terrible at following rules or instructions! I knew it was “wordless:, but I saw on someone else’s blog an almost wordless wed which was the same concept (pictures) but had a few sentences….I’ll try to do better next time!
Beautiful Quilt SuziCate! And what a great present for your sister!

Thanks, Spot.
Wahhhh! I wanna be crafty (in a good way) just like you! This is beautiful and what a special gift between sisters!
You can….I am totally self taught (that explains why I am not very good at it, but I love it anyway!)
Quilting seems such a quintessentially American craft and it’s one that I’d love to have a go at some day. This is beautiful and the joy about a quilt for me is that it’s made with love, care and time. I can’t think of a nicer gift to cherish for generations to come.
Awe, thanks!
great to see you are embracing and sharing the talent and love that goes into your quilts. so glad you shared that!
What a great present! You are very talented.
I always wanted to try quilting, but I hear it can be quite expensive.
It can be very expensive. Most quilts cost me about $75 in supplies, sometimes less if I hit good sales. I love it, but it gives me such terrible back pain that I don’t do it as often now.
Bellissima quilt, SC!
How talented you are!
I closest thing I ever got to doing something such as this, was when I went through a period of doing needlepoint and latch-hook rugs.
(which btw, I NEVER finshed ANY of them)
HA!
Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed!
Oh, I used to love doing latch hook rugs!
I’m wordless. I mean speechless.
You’re too funny!
First attempt? Wow! It’s beautiful!
It was actually my second one. My first art quilt I made for my husband. I made many quilts but probably only about a dozen art quilts.
I am so impressed!! That is great!!
Why thank you!
That? Is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! What an amazing, spectacular job! What a wonderful talent to possess, Suzicate.
Thank you, but trust me I just dabble. The talent of REAL art quilters is absolutely amazing!
Oh, I think it’s lovely!
And I don’t do Wordless Wednesday because, well, I just can’t be wordless. LOL
Me either, that’s why I cheated and called it “almost” wordless Wed.
Beautiful! You did a fantastic job.
Thank you.
Wow, that’s amazing! I tried to make a quilt once. It turned out really… lumpy. With holes in the seams. Well, it’s the thought that counts, right?

It is always the thought…the love that goes into it is much more important than the actual results!
What a great project – it’s beautiful!!! I love quilts…
) My mom is a quilter so quilts always make me feel that ‘at home comfy’ feeling.
on the one hand yeah for the GE customer service on the other hand 50 dollars, that’s it?
Gorgeous. I am very impressed. Isn’t there something so rewarding about creating something that you can hold in your own hands? Something under which a person you love can cuddle?
