    Back in 2004, my husband and I received this quilt from his Aunt Joyce. It was the second bed quilt that she gave us and I really felt that someone needed to return the favor. I ended up making her a small wallhanging that I would love to re-do now that I have more experience, but she loves it anyway. This beautiful Lone Star did cause me to have to totally redecorate our bedroom, but that's all part of the fun, right?? I hope you enjoy looking at it as much as we've enjoyed having it!

    What a beautiful quilt. I would love to redo my bedroom around that centerpiece! Great work.
