Elvis Rocked

By Val Sjoblom of International Falls Minnesota

Artist's Statement:
Putting together a quilt to remember Elvis is easy. Like a quilt - having so many pieces that make it a treasure. The reasons we treasure Elvis are the many pieces of his personality and life that we loved.
His burning full lips, his gyrating hips
His bedroom eyes, his muscular thighs!
His fancy suits, his cowboy boots,
And his sexy voice makes us rejoice!
Our hearts began to beat when Elvis swept us off our feet
Singing The Jailhouse Rock!!!!

She's put one of those things in the bottom, that if you touch the bottom of the quilt, it starts playing Elvis singing! If you touch it twice, it quits!

Very good use of photo transfers in this one.

But the quilting really makes the quilt.

Look how skillfully she did this lettering with a continuous line! Must have taken some planning.
