A year ago last November, I was sewing my husband's Christmas Present (a raggy flannel quilt), when he came downstairs to see what I was doing. Since the surprise was blown I asked him to help me finish it. Since then we have made 24 raggy flannel quilts. He cuts and trims the squares, pins the squares and rows together and all I do is stitch. He also helps snip the seams, and since we also do embroidery on the squares, helps me pick out the pattern and does all the hooping. We've had a lot of fun planning and designing the quilts, and have got everything down pat. It takes us about 20 hours to complete a quilt from start to finish, depending on the amount of embroidery. We've only been married 2 1/2 years, (we both were widowed after long time marriages), and doing this together has brought us closer together as we continually get to know each other better.
