das0421 Mary Jean's Liberty Star - This lap quilt was made for my deceased mother's best friend, Mary Jean Douthitt, in honor of her 83rd birthday. Mary Jean loves all things Americana. In fact, she drives her little White Rabbit around town with a U.S. flag flying. Yes, she's very active and an inspiration to everyone who knows her. In the four corners, I used silk thread to embroider the year of her birth in one corner, the current year in another, her monogram in another corner and mine in the last. She's been our family friend since I was born and became friends with my mother in/around 1933. I love her a lot.
