Hi again,

Here is another quillow I made, this time for Sarah. Sarah's family had just purchased a piano and she was going to be having lessons. I thought I would give her something to practice with. The music is real - I downloaded it from the Internet then digitized it and stitched it out. (If I was to do it again I would probably print it instead).

For those of us who don't read music very well, the panels should read

1st 8 bars of Waltzing Matilda (Sarah's father is Australian)
1st 8 bars of Beethoven's 5th symphony
1st 4 bars of Bach's Minuet in G
1st 4 bars of Beethoven's 9th symphony - Ode to Joy

I know - I have been told several times - the piano keyboard down the center has more than the regulation number of keys. I make quilts not music.

Here is another picture:
