Design Source - Description | Family and friends were given a square to decorate. Immediate family chose the batiks. Immediate family and GmaLou came up with design elements. The individual quilts are sewn to the background quilt so that each one is in fact a pocket for holding small items. Each component has sentimental value. The quilt was a surprise at the shower for the McKay first child. What fun. How special. |
