My elderly uncle taught me to do the cathedral window quilt 50 years ago. he left me his old singer when he died. All of the pieces in the window were scraps of sewing from clothes I made for my neices, carefull cut squares of my mother dresses,
pieces of both my sisters wedding dresses, scraps of tie material from a business I had. Each of my neices wrote about the quilt for school about how it pulled our family together.
Yours is exquiste...

Your Cathedral Windows Quilt is so beautiful. You gave me the inspiration, I went to the website for the pattern and have started learning the pattern. I never, ever, thought I would be able to create something so beautiful. I am using .50cent a yard material to learn on and it is turning into a work of art with each window I add. I won't post again until it is finished but I couldn't wait to share my excitement with you.

Next is reversible quilt as you go. Very relaxing to make. I have made 6 of these quilts using different size squares from 4" to 10" Ideal for a man's quilt.
Miniture quilt is paper pieced. My first attempt.
