Default I finally got it quilted!

I pieced this quilt in 2014, and then it sat. First of all, I couldn't think of how to quilt it. I wanted it special. Mostly I just do meander, or stipple, on my Tiara. I finally thought of the Baptist fan pattern and bought a ruler to do this. Then it sat. Last summer I started on it. Then I had two knee replacements, spent the winter in Hawaii and then got shingles (yes, I had the vaccine). I finally got it finished today and will give it to my sister-in-law tonight. She will be thrilled.

Your quilt tells a special story. Nice that you are finally able to finish the quilting. May your SIL enjoy every moment snuggled with it.
