    This was made from scraps; didn't have a pattern; it measures 55" x 55". It was one of my first efforts at applique; it is all hand-pieced and hand-quilted. I even remembered to sign and date it. Thanks for looking.

    One person shouldn't have this much fun!

    More pieces for the back; God Bless.
