    Default Tonga Rhapsody

    This is a block of the month I did a couple years ago and finally before Christmas I got the borders on and quilted for my sister and her husband for their Christmas present. This was probably one of the most time consuming quilts I have ever made. I grew to hate this quilt. I showed it to my sister when I was working on it and she loved it, so I knew from that day what I was going to do with this quilt. I free motioned feathers and swirls and stitched in the ditch the individual blocks. So this is one UFO done in 2013. The name of pattern is Tonga Rhapsody. Thanks for looking.
