It was never actually "finished", but at some point it became a quilt, and last Sunday it became a gift.

Sara, bless you for sharing this MOST useful stitch!

Marcella that's just beautiful. They seem really happy to have it. It looks "finished" to me. :D I love the turkey tracks (?) stitch you used. So neat!

Thanks, you guys! That is the "turkey tracks" aka "crows foot" stitch that Sara Vincent taught us here

back on the 6th of August. JUST in the nick of time! I needed to stabilize that big house and the big tree and that was the very stitch I needed.



The center block is 36 inches square.

Wow, you used the "crows foot" stitch, and it worked in beautifully. Glad it was able to be utilized in such a fine manner. Remember that the crowsfoot can be aimed up, or down. It's a beautiful quilt. Sara
