A Quilt For Handsome...

Stunning long-arm work by Pat Alderman

After my hair appointment yesterday (I have to look good for the holidays,
right?), Handsome took me to Parrish to pick up his finished quilt from 
Pat Alderman. (I'm not cleared to drive myself yet.) He hasn't see it, as it's
his Christmas gift this year, but I just know he's going to be completely
thrilled when he unwraps it on Christmas Day. I know I'm over the moon!

Perfect quilting for a masculine design

Pat accented the Princeton plates without making them too girly. I love how

 every decision she made creates movement without being over the top. She

used a washable wool batting, so the quilt has the most wonderful drape, too!

I'm loving the final result!

I'll be binding the quilt in just a few days and then it will be ready to

place beneath our Christmas tree. Thank you, Pat, for another splendid

quilting finish. I'll be entering this one in our quilt show in February, too.

I think it's nearly time to sit back and relax! Just a few more packages

to ship and then I can enjoy the entire holiday with loved ones.

There really isn't anything better, is there?
