Past, Present and Future
I knit, but I used to quilt for a long time. My fabric "stash" is starting to call my name, but I'm not quite ready to answer back yet.
This was the 2nd quilting project I ever did -- no one told me that the mariner's compass was supposed to be "hard." It is all done by hand, although I eventually made my peace with machine piecing. I still hand quilt though -- not beautifully, but I need the relaxation of the needle.
I gifted this runner to my late mother years ago; she "gave it back" to me when she was downsizing. I actually display it all year in our living room and am happy to have it.
Jinny Beyer fabrics from the early 1990's, I think.
