| I was getting ready to post photos of my newest quilt and realized I hadn't posted any from the last one. Can't have that, can we? So here they are. This is a quilt I made for my GodDaughter's graduation from Arizona State University. Now she's in LA and working her way into the public relations business in the music industry. Very contemporary lifestyle and tastes so a traditional quilt was not going to do for her. I designed this one and tried to incorporate the ASU colors (maroon and gold) while keeping it primarily black and white. The top is quilted in glow in the dark thread and I used a metallic sparkle thread in the bobbin so the black back of the quilt has a personality too!

| Sorry, Wanda, but she did love it. I made a couple throw pillows in the same fabrics and two fabric bowls too. I put glow in the dark beads on the bowls to go with the glow thread in the quilting. I have to admit it was the hardest one yet to part with! |

| Love it. You can't go wrong with B&W and I like the way you incorperated the music theme, subtile but appropriate. Nicely done. Jayne |
