Loretta,
The first quilt I ever pieced was a DP like that. I was expecting my second child and my grandmother was living with me and she was pieceing one and I made one for my son. That was 46 years ago and I sent it to my Mother and the ladies at her church quilted it. I did not try my hand at quilting again for 42 years. Wish my grandmother could be with me now, what fun we would have. She is the one who taught me to sew.
