Moving It Forward applique family

Back in 2013 I made my first It Takes a Village quilt.  I gave it to my friend, Amy, the mother of eight beautiful children.  The quilt resides on her daughter’s wall. From time to time I borrow it when I do trunk shows or teach a class. Well, I recently borrowed but it looks like I’ll need it longer than I thought. Not feeling good about keeping it that long. I decided to make another. First I made a little family.

Then dove into my bits bin and got busy making a village.

 

Finally I combined the two. As soon as I get it quilted and bond I will exchange this one for the one on display at a local quilt shop and return the original to it’s rightful owner.
