    Default Lady of the Lake

    Geri has spent a lot of time been collecting Civil War fabrics to make her Lady of the Lake. I believe it has certainly been worth the wait! The large half square triangle is a 6 inch finished block. The quilt measures 113 1/2 by 101 which includes the borders. We chose Hobbs 80/20 batting and used Mother Goose thread to quilt a feather meander over the top. Hope you enjoy Geri's quilt!

    WOW this is one amazing quilt! How patient she must be, but on the other hand, what a masterpiece she has created.
