Good Friday morning.
It's still cold here in northern, lower Michigan.
I had to pull the window boxes in the garage last night, because of the cold temps.
~~~~~~
As some of you know, I collect linens, doilies, and buttons.
A friend makes gorgeous quilts, and pillows. I've asked her to make several custom quilts for my home.
Recently I asked Kim to put together a vintage quilt using doilies, and white buttons to match two pillows that she previously had made.
I put the quilt and pillows on the bed this morning.
It's just perfect!!
Kim is a perfectionist.
Her projects are all done with care, and every seem, and corner line up to a T.
She has a certain style that is unmistakable.
I love all of the vintage pieces that were used to put this quilt together.
It marries so well with the bed frame.
I want to thank this special lady for all of the time that it took to make this quilt for me.
I LOVE it, Kim!
It's beautiful!
AND exactly what I wanted.
You are amazing!
Have a great weekend everyone, where ever you are!!

It's so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDear Debbie, I am thinking these are not doubt a work of art and what a great way to pull the vintage and lace and doilies together. I would love to make a table scarf for my living room end tables! I hope you have a wonderful weekend! I am cleaning and rearranging today. Just taking a break and wanted to visit you!

Debbie, When people sew that well....I call it a work of art. It is one of a kind also. I absolutely love it. Hope you get many warm snuggles with it. Blessings for a warmer weekend, xoxo,Susie

We're experiencing chilly temps here to and I took my flowers off the balcony...quite a change from Florida a week ago!
ReplyDeleteLove that quilt, Kim is really a detailer!!! A nice meandering pattern to her machine quilting, too.
So pretty Debbie. It looks great on your bed. It actually snowed here in Chicagoland this morning and I had to drag all my flowers into the dining room and living room. OMG this is the middle of May. Sometimes I ask myself why I live in the midwest???? I will keep mine in tonight and then hopefully tomorrow be able to have them back outside. Too crazy. Have a great week end.

The bedding is stunning Debbie! Your friend is truly an artisan. What a great idea to use your collections to create a one of a kind piece of art! We didn't get snow here, but did have frost. Remind me again why we live in Northern Michigan? I just have to keep remembering what a beautiful place it is with all the lakes and woods in the summer! Keep warm girl :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Deborah
