Default Finished at last

I went Goodwill shopping several months ago and found a hugh bag of fabric scraps for $1.50. Got it home and found out that it was actually a bag of quilt blocks, enough to make 2 nice sized quilts, mostly hand sewn.

It made me wonder what became of the person who so lovingly and patiently sewed these tiny little squares together by hand . . . and then didn't finish the quilt. The material from one definitely came from shirts, house dresses, etc.

The bag got "lost" in my sewing room until this past weekend. I organized the blocks, checked my stash and found enough to make strips and borders to enlarge the quilt and a back. I also had left over batting for the sandwich.

So here is my quilt with a past. I hope the lady that never got to finish her quilt would like what I did.
