    I made this top over a year ago and wanted to hand quilt it. Kept putting it off until one day I thought of a couple good friends (in their +80s) who love to quilt. I made a deal, if they wanted to quilt it I would give them the quilt. They did just that in 10 days! They plan to sell tickets on it and donate the proceeds. The finished quilt measures 60"x80"

    I love it, and how nice of you to donate it if they would quilt it.
