I started this quilt in a class at Daisy Barrell in Fairborn, Ohio around 2000 (estimate), I would work on it then put it away. I finally finished it this winter. It is hand appliqued onto cotton with cotton sashing and boarders. I made a scrapy pieced backing out of lots of leftover flannels. I even added a few "Let It Snow" embroidery from my craft show days. I then used pearl cotton to big stitch quilt it, in not particular pattern. Hope you all enjoy looking at my pics. It has been a labor of love and very, very cozy and warm on the cold Ohio nights. Celia

Good things are worth waiting for and spending quality time with. This is beautiful. Different parts will bring back a decade of memories. Can't think of anything better than that. I just love it!
