Congratulations Don! Nice photo and article. Quite an honor!!

Davena 07-11-2016 06:26 PM

Wow Don , Congrats to you and I love your quilt that you are hand quilting. It must have been an amazing feeling to be hand quilting in the same space as some very antique quilts were on display. I envy you as I would have loved to been able to see these beauties. Just hearing the history behind them was amazing. Please keep posting your work and sharing your quilting stories..
