Beautiful quilt!! So summerly looking! I'm guessing it will raise quite a bit! :D :D

That is just so pretty!! Your church is sure to make a lot of money off of it. If I did that by hand it would take 4 lifetimes, not 4 months!!

Beauful!! I'm sure your church will profit well from this. All by hand - good for you. I use the machine to piece, but quilt by hand. Have not gotten the courage to machine quilt - maybe one day :?:
