    My 90 year old Aunt (she is older than I thought she still looks wonderful and I love her..!!!) gave me a bunch of scraps for a quilt and she wanted a green quilt. Most of the fabric was purple...I was able to find a sale for the green fabric for 4.99 a yard for the borders....I think the green borders make it more green. I hope she like it...I will put it together tomorrow...I hate my back...it was hurting so I am holding off to finish it tomorrow.
