And even more interesting is that at the time she sold it, it would have been in excess of $72,000 U.S. dollars, because if I read it right, she sold it in 2010 and lives in Australia.
It is beautiful though. According to her site, it is about 2 meters squared, (about 78 x 78). Wow!

Mayday, If this is your quilt....wow, it is the most gorgeous quilt I think I have ever seen. I love it! I want to make a crazy quilt so bad, with all the embellishments and embroidery, but can't seem to find a class anywhere. I think I'm obsessed with making one. Do you recommend any books! You deserve every $$$ you received!!
