he restoreth my soul


Made for friends who gave us their summer home for a week.
My mother and I worked on the binding together while sitting on the fabulous porch.
Churn Dash--finish 7 inches.
After looking at some older quilts, I used a wider sashing than I normally make. I like the strong grid.
Quilted by Suzette Fisher--I asked her to use yellow thread--I've been using yellow more and more; it looks great on many fabrics.

what a great quilt, I love the sashing, sometimes I really think it needs to be bolder and more substantial.
great blocks....
what a nice gift I bet they will treasure this quilt.
