This is a memory quilt for my Dad who we lost to cancer last year. He is a pilot that learned to fly long before there was any FAA to give tests and licenses. He loved the old airplanes and had one until a couple of years ago when he sold his to my brother. This is the center of the quilt. I plan to put a six inche border with appliqued propellers going around. When he was a little boy, my grandma took him to the airport to watch the planes. When he had a birthday party, instead of pin the tail on the donkey, they played pin the prop on the plane.
This quilt is hand appliequed and hand pieced, and will be hand quilted.
