Now ++ On to that which is Peaceful, Calming


Bernice Cooksey gave me this ... 18" squares (4 across x 5 down)

Hand piced by her mother on muslin (give to me almost three years ago 09-2006 photo)

I tried rick-rack, soft colors or something to offset and bring out colors. So as I've begun embroidery, I cut the blocks apart, I've put them on my machine and now I'm set to remake this for her!

AGAIN.... I CAN RECORD THE BEGINNING AND FINISHING OF MY QUILTS...... 20 BLOCKS SET IN RIBBONS OF SOFT COLOR.....OCTOBER 16-2009.   Ready for quilter Bill Crye....

Antique Quilt Tops -Rough Diamonds


Let's say.... in the making. I really can see how super, fantastic and outstanding this junkie thing will be. Had to wash it. It did shred -- cottons, other stringie fabric.
It reminds me of my Mama Dooley's quilt... will be a knockout!
I love that people know I collect these treasures. Given to me by Madine West, St John (I think!?!) Her mother made it. I'll do an anatomy page, and interview her also.
