I have a very large garden area in our back property here in eastern Oregon. In the spring, summer , and fall, it is quite beautiful with all the plants, and other flowers that spring up after the snow melts away. This quilt top began as a " Nana's Garden" quilt pattern.. I found it to be monotonous, and soon it found its way in a different scrappy quilt , this one.. Each weed I have ever pulled in the flower beds here all have different looks.. as does this scrappy quilt does in each little piece of fabric making up the blocks in the second photo. Just wanted to know that if anyone is interested in coming here in the spring, to pull my weeds, you are most welcome to do so.. I will even throw in the garden gloves for free!

Thanks for the offer, it is very generous. However I will have to decline the offer. I have my own weeds to pull, so I will pull mine and you can pull yours. Thanks Again.
