Old blocks brought to life
My friends mom passed away two years ago and while going through her things she found these old embroidered blocks and asked if I could put them into a quilt for her. So of course I said yes. When I got the blocks and realized the size of them and it was determined that I was able to make two full-size quilts with the blocks and had four left over that I’m going to turn into two reversible pillow covers. My friend helped pick out the colors that she wanted the quilts made of; one is predominantly purple, and the other one the pink. I quilted them differently, one with a little bit more now design (stipple with some leaves), and the other one in a traditional clamshell pattern and I actually really enjoy how this clamshell pattern turned out. These quilts and the pillow covers will be headed to Florida on Monday. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at them. Now back to quilting the next project.
