This is the picture of the whole "Sunflowers" quilt designed by Pam Bono. In the "just the way I am..." department, this was the first quilt I ever decided to do! Hadn't sewn for 40 yrs so do I chose to do a placemat? No, not me! It was the first one I started but I did finish a couple of others before it. Can you imagine SID around each flower on an old straight stitch machine? It's for my daughter (caught napping) and her husband's king size log bed. Took about 16 mos. to finish but I did it! The chicken wire fabric is not matched up and one of the leaves is in the wrong place, but we love it!

Sunflowers for Daughter & hubbie

It's beautiful! Quite an undertaking for a first quilt. You did a fantastic job. You know it's good when the cats approve!
