Comments
I started this quilt about eight years ago to commerate my 10th wedding anniversary. It took the assistance of my wonderful mother-in-law, Kathleen to get to completion. I have now been married 17 years. Since I had started the quilt a long time ago, it was difficult to find the fabrics for the border. I am using the border fabrics for a shower curtain, valences and pillows and pillow cases. A makeover for my bedroom.
