My Mom's Quilt
In 2012, I made a quilt for my mom. This is one of the quilts that lead me to getting a long arm sewing machine to do my quilting. The pattern is from Marsha McCloskey’s Quick Classic Quilts – Four-Patch to Feathered Stars. Burgoyne Surrounded.
After all the work of cutting and piecing the small bits, I felt odd about handing it off to someone else (in this case it was Creative Sisters in Waterloo) to quilt it. While they did a great job and I love the pattern used, it was just not done by me and I thought, if I were to enter any quilts into a show, I would need to do the quilting on my own.
