I don't do piecing although I do put on a border so the entire thing is machine applique. I also don't do quilting so Anna will quilt her top (I did send material for binding and a wide back). This is Anna's quilt she also pieced and quilted two small quilts which are incorporated and we both worked on it, close to 50/50. Before anyone asks there is no one pattern for it, it consists of many pieces from many places: trees, fields, chicken, rooster, horse etc. I apologize for the extra time it took and hope it is all worth it to Anna. This has certainly been a unique experience in many ways thanks to all.
Debbie you sure know how to keep some one in suspense. From the hints you are dropping I just know I will love it as we are in agriculture. For you folks also in this swap Debbie had many things happen this year from helping a friend in need that had no one else to getting of all things Lime disease and she still managed to do the swap. I appreciate that very much. thank you for being my partner Debbie. More to come when the applique top is here.
