My very first quilt was a GFG that a darling elderly neighbor taught me as I recovered from a CVA. I made it all by hand, with nothing but a pen, needle, fabric, one template, and an old pair of lousy scissors. She was afraid I would not be able sew if I did not get right back into it. Bless her heart, she is gone now, but her loving gesture continues to live on in me. I only made it big enough to cover a small round table but man was I proud of my results. Thank you for the walk down memory lane. Lol!
