Tara's Grad Quilt

 "Trip Around the World" quilt for Grad 2011 for Tara.  Tea dyed the front to make it look more antique . Made the panels in the summer, kind of forgot about it for a while, until after New Year's, then decided it was time to put it together. I made a quilt for her sister, Aleia, last year. Neat to make  something for  a special occasion.
 Reverse of Grad quilt. Decided to use another panel, to make this side more bright.....love the hot pink. Added the writing at teh top and bottom. "Grad 2011" and "Tara Lynn". Her second name means "Beautiful" , so wrote that in  embroidery thread. Had to think hard about some sort of  inspirational wording so chose "God reveals...." Easy to fit on the panel, and loved making the swirly letters.
