Default Grandmother's Fan Finished!

The idea for this quilt originated with my desire to use the 9 yards of lace that I've had for a couple of decades. The idea just kind of "grew" (not without a ration of problems) and the end result is that I now have my very own lap quilt, which I will enjoy when the unseasonably warm weather we've been having ends and Old Man Winter arrives.

Thank you for looking.[ATTACH=CONFIG]297804[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]297805[/ATTACH]

Very pretty. I have some special fabric that will someday be used for a Grandmother's Fan. Just have to get the courage up.
