Default The Lighthouse Quilt

Last year I offered to make a quilt to be auctioned off for the family reunion. After some struggles, I came up with this. I offered to donate a lap quilt, but one of the women came back afterwards to ask if I would be willing to make a bed quilt, instead. I tried, I really did, but I just couldn't.

Wow! I wish I were there to bid. I love it. What is the light house fabric. I have a friend who would also just love this.

Thanks! I'm not sure, actually. It was gifted to me, so I'm not sure where it orginated from.

I, too, would like to be a family member in attendance and be able to bid on that quilt.

I don't know what your husband said but I probably agree, no one should be dictating what you are donating! It is a really cool quilt.
