    Default Happy 50th Birthday Big Sis Quilt

    I recently finished this quilt for my sister's 50th birthday. This was machine pieced and hand quilted. My first attempt at more than echo quilting. It took me almost 9 months to finish, but the look on her face when she saw it was well worth the time.
