Instead of forcing my mom to do the quilting, like I usually do,
I figured I'd do it myself.
In a young and free spirit (I mean, if you're going to make a quilt for your lonely college bedroom, you might as well throw some panache in) I quilted it with my favorite song lyrics.
Featured here is "The way it pops and fizzes" (from The Band Perry's Hip to My Heart)
Other lyrics included:
-"I want a love that's still alive and well in rocking chairs" (Andy Grammar, Keep Your Head Up)
-"Pick yourself up and dust yourself off and back in the saddles" (Shakira, Waka Waka)
-"Good times never seem so good" (Neil Diamond, Sweet Caroline)
-etc etc...

First off...I'm very pouty that you didn't remember the pillow tutorial. I was all ready to pin it for further use.
just so you know.
Other then that...FABULOUS quilt! I love it! It's just so lovely and I just adore that you quilted it with lyrics. That's seriously so fun!
Kim! I've been blog stalking and I found your blog. I love it.
That is an awesome quilt. Nice work. Putting song lyrics on it is a sweet idea. I love that pillow.
there had better be at least one picture of me on that picture wall or this relationship's over.
that's all I have to say. and that I like your quilt a little bit.
um....and I sure hope you used Shakira's "lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you don't confuse them with mountains" from Whenever, Wherever.
