This entire quilt was hand done!!!! It took her eight years. But what a reward!

Ok, I have just one more, just so I can leave a really big smile on your faces!quilts 023

Sorry about some of these pictures, they are not as sharp as they should be, I also had a smudge on my camera lens and so right in the center of some pictures, it is fuzzy! Some days, I should just stay home….but this was not one of them! It was an incredible experience and I learned a lot.

    Those are beautiful. Eight years is a long time to work on a quilt, but indeed it is fabulous....and the last indeed made me smile. Thanks for sharing.
