Introducing the 2013 TQS Block of the Month designed by Sue Nickels and Pat Holly!  It's called "TWO OF US" and was created by the two of them.  The quilt measures 77 1/2" x 77 1/2" and was completed just in time for Houston.

It's an absolutely spectacular quilt and when Alex first saw it her jaw just dropped.
