    I got fabrics from a cousin who died from breast cancer. I took 2 to 3 squares of each fabric and made this quilt. It means a lot to me and it helps me remember my cousin Betty Kay. I have made a few other things from her and have put it on the board. It is 101 x 112. I just quilted criss-cross instead of stitch in the ditch.Thanks for looking
