Japanese Lantern
I copied an old quilt made by my grandmother. She used black borders and the black fabric has disintegrated. Her quilt was made in the late 1800’s or early 1900’s. She made it before she married in 1905. I have it hanging on my stairway so it only shows about a quarter of it. I loved making it and pieced the lanterns by hand and appliqué them to the squares. I felt her with me every stitch of the way.❤️

I love that! i hate to think how difficult it may have been. i right clicked, then on view image and then left clicked to enlarge it. very large but shows the quilt very well. great work!!
