Coincidences and connections! In July, I received a call from Donna Cundiff. She had gotten my name from a friend, who in turn suggested she call Brenda Feeney, long-time quilter and owner of the now-closed Sewing Studio. Brenda, who is no longer taking customer orders, contacted me. Brenda helped guide me into the world of quilting and longarm quilting machines. I much appreciate her help and friendship. End of the story is I met with Donna and began the process of creating Terry’s Quilt of Memories.
Progress
Donna’s late husband was Terry Cundiff, who was a Bassett High School classmate of mine. Donna brought a great selection of Terry’s dress shirt, and requested I made a throw-sized quilt. I used a basic patchwork block design, that I created on my computer using the EQ8 software. The combination of the many colors and patterns of the shirt were surrounded by off-gray sashing. The final border was a navy backing was a shade of gray.
Results
Having known Terry Cundiff in high school, I felt honored to be allowed to create this quilt, and had many nice thoughts of Terry as I worked. Terry’s quilt of memories became a very nice project. I am thankful Donna contacted me, and I’m sure she will find much comfort in this special quilt.
