The majority of Wizard of Oz themed quilts you find use mostly standard licensed fabrics with the characters on them, so most of these quilts are the same. Not with this beauty! We wanted this quilt to really stand out, and to do so, we used only a few of the licensed fabrics and instead used our imagination to recreate scenes or phrases from the movie. This quilt took a lot of effort to make, as the ruby slippers and many of the blocks are meticulously hand applied or appliquéd.. There are several close up blocks we were not able to fit into the pictures added, so if there is a particular block you'd like to see, please feel free to email. The stunning, hand applied sequined ruby slippers on Dorothy's blue gingham material really set the whole quilt off. Bright, beautiful shades of reds, yellows and blues compliment each block as well as the back, which is covered in poppies from the film. On various blocks, you will see "happy little blue birds" flying above the two appliquéd rainbows, hot air balloons surrounded by wicker basket fabric, Glinda the good witch in her appliquéd bubble, Toto in his basket, and in the center, "There's No Place Like Home" is beautifully embroidered on the same blue gingham as the ruby slippers. A lot of the characters from the movie are also featured in the blocks or strips, including the Wicked Witch of the West, Tin Man, Scarecrow, and Cowardly Lion. This quilt is absolutely amazing and, as usual, pictures do not do it justice. The lovely yellow brick road border is quilted, and, if you'd like to see a picture of that, please email us. Measurements are: 49" across and 62 1/2" down. We will ship this item for free! thanks for looking and God bless!

Alexandra Di Ceglie
For Custom quiltI had taken a weekly photo of our son for his entire first year of life. For his grandmothers 70th birthday, we commissioned Amanda at “Songs & Stitches” to make a beautiful quilt which showed all 52 weeks in an ordered display, with his name at the top and the corners stating the birthdate and stats or height and weight etc. It was a very intimate project and came out just beautifully! We are so grateful to her for creating an everlasting memory with such a beautiful quilt. We were able to collaborate together on all details and everything is just how we wanted! Thanks so much, Amanda!
Sherry Jordan
For Photo QuiltI can't begin to express my gratitude to have worked with Amanda on this project. The quilt had so much meaning for me so making sure the details were perfect were extremely important. Amanda thought of design elements that made it unique and pulled the entire project together. She even suggested a lighter batting so the quilt could be used year round (which is what I wanted). She has a wonderful eye for color, design and layout so the quilt turned out just perfect. Her quilting expertise is unmatched by any I have ever seen. Amanda communicated with me throughout the project and solicited my input. Her enthusiasm and vision for what she was doing was even evident through our email communications. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone wanting quality quilting, to deal with a professional who takes pride in her work, and someone who has great attention to every little detail. Thank you Amanda for a job that surpassed all of my expectations (and mine are always extremely high). This quilt will be a reminder of the love and times I shared with my nephew long after I leave this world. I am forever grateful to you and pray that God blesses you ten fold!
