Raspberry Sorbet (Taste of Summer)

This quilt top from the 1930s-40s was purchased at the Dallas Quilt Show in the mid 1990s. I finally made the back and marked the quilting with a design I found in American Patchwork & Quilting (Feb 2014). I am part of a group of 11 women who meet weekly to hand quilt on a frame--we go from one home to another and work on one person's quilt until it is done. Raspberry Sorbet is a Burgoyne Surrounded pattern and was finished in the Fall of 2014. I almost hated to sandwich it and quilt it, because the original maker hand pieced the entire top with the tiniest, most perfect stitches I have ever seen.
