Design Source - Description | It's been 10 months of work, but this quilt is finally competed! This is a portrait of my in-laws, Paul and Ruth Johnson, with borders of 6 inch squares of the 11 grandchildren and group pictures of them. We will present this quilt to mom in November when we all gather to celebrate her 80th birthday. This is a surprise, so if there are any of her friends on this site, don't tell her! |
