This is a better picture of the Quilt Bag I made for my Granddaughter's quilt, showing both the front and back of the bag. The quilt itself is in the Quiltshop and hopefully will be finished this week. I am so anxious to get it back and add the binding and the labels to the quilt. The last picture is of the labels I made for the quilt.
Hugs Jerri

Thanks Loralye. I am getting anxious to give it to her, but may not be until their Thanksgiving in Nov. as they now live in Everett, Wa. Its been a while since I went down for a visit as they did a lot of Reno's on the main floor of their house. Still a couple of things yet to be done, so will go when its all finished. I miss them so much as we always lived within a few mins of each other...

Thank you Jerrilyn. I just thought it might inspire others to make something like it for their quilts, if they are going to be stored as a keepsake. I get so many wonderful idea's from the members here, I like to give a little something back. Hugs Jerr

That's what we Grandma's do right? I just wish I hadn't made the quilt so large, but its a learning project. I can feel your hugs..Jerri

It is so special to get a quilt made by a loved one. Now you have carried a step further. It can't get more special than having it's own bag to protect it on.

Thank you Karen, she is the first of my 3 Grandchildren to get a quilt like this. I learnt a lot doing it as I had made up the design of the quilt myself. Hopefully will be posting a picture of the quilt itself soon.

Wow! Jerri, this looks awesome and I love the labels. What does LYBOAB stand for? Love you something....... Karlie will treasure it always. Love Chris

Thanks Chris. LYBOAB is something my Mom always signed her cards with so I am carrying it on. It means
Love You Bigger of a Bunching???? Never thought to ask why Bunching and now its too late...Hugs Jerri

We used to say "love you bunches" so this is probably meaning more than bunches.
I always thought it meant bunches of flowers ??????

Thanks Rescuer: I can't wait for her to see it also. May not be until your Thanksgiving, but it will give me time to add the binding and labels. Hugs Me.

Jerri, I will be so anxious to see the work of art when it is finished. I can't even imagine how excited your granddaughter will be. She will certainly cherish this for her entire life. I was thinking it was about time that you should be getting it back from the quilter. How exciting!!

Hi my quilting buddy. She was to start quilting it on the 14, but got behind. She promised me it would be done this week as my friend is coming in to help me with the binding. I will post a picture when its all done. It ended up being 60"x104". I learnt a lot, thanks to you, so won't make the next one so big. I probably won't get down to see them until your Thanksgiving.
Hugs Jerri

Thanks Meg. I couldn't have done it without your help and a couple of other dear friends. I am so anxious to see it all quilted and to put the border on it and then to see Karlie's reaction when she sees it.
You have done so much to help me with all my crazy idea's and to make them happen. Thank you for being my helper.
Hugs Jerri.
PS Had a little power outage as I was typing this to you...
