    My Mom and I pieced this quilt, about 2 months couple of hours every Saturday and maybe one evening in between here and there.

    Mom handquilted it, took her about 5 months working a couple of hours each night.

    It is an oversized King so it will drape quite a bit over edges and pillows.

    Love the pattern and Fabrics ! What a labor of love :lol: A family heirloom in the making be sure and document the story behind the quilt so that it can be told to future generations

    It's lovely and you both did a great job, and it's in my favourite colours too.
