Below is the very special Angel Quilt. This quilt was made by a friend of mine, for her grandson.This quilt was shown in the quilt show here in town in 98. There was a news paper article written about it. The quilt show was held in Oct. and Nov. 98. The next year she put it in the BIG quilt show in Kentucky that is held in April. In November she died of cancer.
This is one of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen and I knew the maker!!!
She made that quilt out of 1 and a half squares. I don't remember who many there where now but it was in the thousands. It had been a cross stitch pattern and she had to get permission from the maker of the cross stitch pattern. The quilt took your breath away.Again I thank-you so much for coming to read my blog. I love your friendship!!!
Please leave a comment and come again soon. Fern
Fern: we think the quilt is breath-taking, and hope her granson appreciates the love it shows.

oh my gosh, I love dogwood trees. There are a couple in the woods behind my house, but that's it.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that quilt; it looks like it's a tapestry.

Thank you for sharing.

That is an incredible quilt! What a lot of work went into that. I'm not sure I'd have the patience.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning quilt! How lucky for you to have known the quiltmaker!
