Default Older made quilt
This older quilt was made by a gals mother years ago. You know, when there was absolutely no waste of fabric. There are pieces about 1/2 by 1 inch sewn into a strip to make it fit. With that in mind, there were seams almost upon seams. With nothing really being square, tracing would have just magnified every small boo boo. So I did a swirl and quilted it tight and I am in love with the finished item! Lots of thread and about 5 hours and this is the jewel!
