    Stithengramie requested this, but I hope everone enjoys it.

    It was made for my Mom, and hangs over her couch. The pattern is fron Better Homes and Gardens Favorite Quilt Books. This is one of my firsts and was made quite a few years ago. The berries are all buttons from my Grandmother's button box. All the applique is done by hand and the vines are embroidered.
