Robots and Fabric

 Jen finished her Robot Quilt.  It was quilted with a nuts, bolts and gears pattern.


It is a work of art!  She gifted it to her husband for his birthday. 

She does not get her talent for sewing from me.

Oh my! That is so cute and so intricate! She is quite talented. :)

That's pretty cool! I bet he loved it.

Lynda said...

That is very beautiful and looks quite labor intensive. I admire her for her perseverance. That is something I would be proud to finish but don't know that I ever could take on something of that magnitude. Painting an entire room by myself seems much more achievable to me. Thank you to both of you for sharing that a with us.

Jen did an awesome job on this quilt. Wow! Lots of little pieces.

Linda said...

Wow, that quilt is amazing. What a lot of work, but how cute!!! I quilt but I don't have it in me to do anything that complicated any more. I hope the husband loved it.

Wow, that is incredible! She may not get her sewing ability from you, but I'm pretty sure you passed on the creative streak.

Stupendous!!! What talent!

Betsy said...

Wowzers! That is some quilt! I can't even begin to imagine making something like that. I'm glad it's staying in the family so she can enjoy it too.
Blessings,

That is an amazing quilt! Great job, Jen! I thought it was for their son as he was into robotics wasn't he? Regardless, it is a masterpiece! Congratulations!

Jen sure did an awesome job on that quilt! Any robotics person would love to have that quilt! Connie do you freeze your peaches before sealing them?

West/Jo After they are sliced I put them in a bowl, add a bit about 1/4 teaspoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon Fruit Fresh give it a stir and put them in the bag and seal then freeze. :)
