Pillowcase Quilt with a Quote

"An easy quilt with a quote that says "World's Best [Blank]". Perfect for quilt gifting. Can be made into a pillow case, throw, or wall-hanging. Highly customizable to suit any occasion and taste. Easy, straight-line sewing and lots of quilting options that yield a sophisticated result. If you are making this quilt for someone other than your brother, say, a best friend, then all you have to do is change the letters and choose his/her favourite colours. It doesn’t matter if “FRIEND” has one less letter than “BROTHER”. You could leave the first or last column blank, or add one character at the end like an exclamation mark or a star shape to fill up the last column (see illustrations in website). "
