    I started it on Honey, the Featherweight, and finished it on Eleanor, the 28K handcrank. Straight line quilted on Mamie, the New Florence treadle.
    I found this link for the pattern

It's nothing really special, nor is my work up to the standards of many (most) of the ladies here, but John loved it, and I guess he's the one that counts!

    The photo of the quilt by itself is kind of funky...don't know why it looks pink, the white is actually white.
    John is such a sweet spirit! I pray a miraculous healing falls on him! There are too few people that would give their lives for others.
