This quilt top was donated to St. Vincent dePaul store.
Brought to our senior quilting group for completion.
Blocks were hand pieced and sashing was all askew.
I replaced the sashing and squared up all the blocks and put it to batting and backing. Blocks measured 7 1/2 inches and new sashing is 2 1/2 inches. Completed quilt measures 47" x38"
