I made this quilt for my favorite uncle who is in a Vet Home. I thought it will brighten up his room. he had a fall last week and I know he will love to sit under the bright colors. I made it using 21/2inch strips I bought at Quilters Picnic in May. I think I will stick to making my own as some of the ones I bought were crooked and lost up to 1/2 inch in the strip size. Thanks for looking. My Misty is taking care of my Mum in the other picture as mum is not well.

This is the label funny considering he was a city man.

this measures 54x60 inches with left ofer strip for borders.I stippled hearts in the borders to show that I loved him.

Can't you tell that Misty is taking good care of Mum.

The pictures made me smile! The happy quilt, the cute kitty, and your mom's kind face. Did you crochet the afghan? She looks covered with love.
