After my dear friend Wendy passed away, I learned that Dennis and Carolyn were expecting their first grandchild in June, 2010. They told me that Wendy had planned on making a quilt for the baby, but it just didn't happen. Needless to say, this meant that I needed to finish this up for her. Choosing the pattern was obvious, it needed to be one of Wendy's designs, and I love her Monet quilt in it's many varieties. The backing was also easy, I've loved this fabric with Wendy's "Weeble" dog on it since it arrived at the shop. My friend Rachel helped me choose the fabrics for the top, again choosing some of my favorite fabrics that hadn't yet made it into my stash. Below is the picture of Weeble on the fabric, and the label. The label reads "Fascinated by Monet" Designed by Wendy Ann Wood, pieced and quilted in her honor by Elizabeth T. Durand. The quilting design is on of my favorites, "Swirls" and we used variegated thread in the top.
