I'm hope this actually works. I've never tried posting a picture on this board. My mother-in-law made sure I knew how to quilt (it was years before I knew anyone actually used a sewing machine to do the quilting). I made two a LONG time ago and was scared to piece a top. It is a complicated story. Lets just say, she taught me very well and she impresses the heck out of me. She's 89 and still making quilts. She hand quilts several a year. This picture is of my first by myself quilt that I made for my daughter. The pattern has been in my husbands family for over 100 years. (It needs some TLC because I was dumb enough to save it in a cedar chest. If anyone has ideas on helping it, please let me know.)
