Froggy Pond Gift for My BFF's Mom

I could't share this until now. 

 I have been working on a quilt for my friend's mom for some time now. 

When  I first saw the Frog pattern I knew I had to make it for my friend's mom. 

 She is an avid frog collector. 

 She is also a BIG fan of Zumba, she has been ill recently and is taking care of a spouse that is ill also,

 oh and she shares my mom's name too! 

 Interestingly enough my friend share's my sister's name.  

Coincidence? 

 I think not. 

 I'm pretty sure God brought us together. 

 She is and always has been the yin to my yang. 

OK enough sappyness.

I was talking to my quilter about the pattern and her mom is always looking for embroidery to do 

so I handed off the pattern and cut the fabric, and she did all the embroidery for me! 

 I made the blocks and assembled the quilt and my friend, Liz did the quilting! 

 I finished the binding last weekend and my friend mailed it off to her mom, who received it today.

Made a frog pond for the back too.

Here are some close ups too

Enjoy your new quilt!

I had fun making it for you.

I hope it brightened your day.
