I love old quilts. Have
a few of my grandmother's.
She made lots of them. Now
I have some unfinished tops
of hers too. I'm afraid to
touch them. You did an
excellent job for your friend.
Love it. Hugs, Sharon

I'm embarrassed that I did not answer some of your questions on the quilting of this quilt.. Was just going through to see if I needed to delete some posts and realized I didn't reply.. This was quilted on the HQ Fusion using the ProStitcher computerized quilting. I don't think it could have been one any other way.. as I had to hold both hands on the top to keep those pinwheels flat. If the hopping foot had caught on any of the pinweels I know it would have torn the top.. I had asked her if she didn't want it hand quilted but after looking more closely when we could n't fine a hand quilter I realized it needed very close quilting.. she cried when she saw it. My business in named: Serendipity Quilting... where the unexpected happens.... this truly was the unexpected!!
\Thanks for all of your kind comments.
