This took me the better part of three months to sew and hand quilt. It's simple but I have two yellow twin size from the 30s and wanted one for my bed.

I just love some of the traditional simple old patterns. To me this looks modern and new all over again. I love it!

I thought the same thing, I hand quilt and 3 months is not very long at all. Did you do anything else during that time? Did you even eat or sleep?
LOL!
