    Love this! I'm working on one made from my dad's shirts. Grandmother's Flower Garden is such a therapeutic quilt to work on. Thanks for sharing.

    Beautiful. The stripes give it such movement.

    I made a similar one. I love the old traditional patterns.

    Keep up the good work. It's so neat that family members finish the UFO's of their parents and grandparents.
