Show and Tell No# 2


I am so happy with this quilt. Not only did I enjoying piecing it but I decided to have it professionally quilted because of its size - 68 inches square.

The pattern is called Irish Swirls and was stitched in pale blue thread.


The quilter has done such a good job. As I sewed down the binding I kept getting cravings for chocolate.

I can't imagine why...





Happy Stitching...Ann

    We haven't seen this one in a while, but I remember it. And I remember loving the blocks even back when you first started it. I still love it and now I want to make one, too! Absolutely beautiful.
