Default Memory Quilt

Had the please to make a memory quilt for a dear friend who celebrated her 90th birthday in June. Her friends who attended her birthday party signed rectangles of fabric which I incorporated into a quilt. I had the pleasure to work with her until she retired at age 80, but she has not slowed down yet. She continues to volunteer daily at her church. Had to crop the picture considerably to upload it. Looked better with a full view.
