    Default Ready to start another quilt

    I finally found the last of the train material I needed to start my quilt for my Cousin. He lives on a farm in Vermont and always has been so helpful when I go up and visit. I asked if he would like a quilt for the cold winters. He loves trains...has a whole cellar full all set up. I thought he would enjoy a quilt with trains. Here is the fabric I found...in the washer it goes...hope to have it done by next weekend.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]361262[/ATTACH] I can't wait to see how it turns out.
