Keely’s Quilt

September 14th, 2007

Carol Bormann just sent me this photo of her granddaughter Keely, who also happens to be named for her “nana. ” Carol was inspired by the stripes and circles painted on the Keely’s bedroom walls and made the quilt for her using a combination of piecing and appliqué with machine embroidered butterflies. And this amazing photo was taken by Nick Bormann, hand-holding a camera above the scene using a wide-angle lens.

Sleeping on a quilt like this — we know Keely’s tiny head must be filled with happy dreams of color and art!

    A better reason for making a quilt there never was! What a fantastic shot.
