Tardis Quilt


I finally get to show you the Tardis quilt I have been working on.  I mentioned in a previous post that when you are working on a gift for someone you can't post about it and its very frustrating cause you want to share each milestone along the way!

I got a ton of help with this quilt from a blog Quilts of a Feather.  I altered the pattern a bit and designed my own embroideries for the lettering.  I did a huge search for the background fabric, and settled on this one from equilter.com.

I made this for my niece, Brianna, for her high school graduation present.  I didn't  get it done in time to give to her at her party.  I really needed the Tardis to go back in time so I could finish it!!

 I finally finished it and was able to give it to her this weekend.  She will have to coolest bed on campus!!

Of course, I made an awesome label for it!!
