    my Mom made this top for my nephew Clay, before she passed away in 1992. Last summer he asked me if I would finish it for him. What a question to ask - duh - of couse I said YES!! The 1st pic is of the top Mom did, it was RED so I toned it down with a border, 2nd pic, simple machine quilting free hand finished it off. Pictures are out of place sorry :roll:

    I can see this as a focal point when walking into a bedroom. Really stunning.
