Gee, my SIL will be keep me busy for awhile! I'm already working on finishing a beautiful 30's/40's log cabin quilt that was started by her grandmother that I plan on giving back to her, and now she gives me another project. These are applique' butterflies in various stages of completion. I LOVE butterflies, and the fabric is the same color as the log cabin so I'm guessing again it may be 30's/40's time frame also. Not exactly sure what I'll do with them, but I just LOVE the history behind them.
On ANOTHER note, I'm SEW stoked that my 10-year-old daughter decided this weekend that she wants to learn to hand quilt! Immediately I put together a small project, and she's been working on it all weekend. She said she really likes it, so we sit together on the couch at night & quilt together. She wasn't really interested in learning to piece on my machines, but is like the hand quilting part. How COOL is that!
