    Default flower basket quilt

    I think your quilt is beautiful. In fact, I have one almost identical to it I did a few years ago. Love it!! Eleanor Burns and her sister Pat Knoechel are great quilters and I enjoy seeing Pat as a speaker each year when she visits our guild. I hand quilted this one and thought it needed something more, so went back and added the half-inch grid to the background. Took me awhile, but it one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing and I hope you learn to love yours too. Blessings, RobertaMarie
