Red and white stars with checkerboard

Quilted by Sue Divarco with a wool batt
You can read my construction post here.
Made with fabrics from my shelves, from my friends' shelves, and from a bit of shopping. There are a few pieces from my mother's sewing over 60 years ago.
Sue did an exquisite job quilting this. She said she pushed to the head of her list to make sure I had it for Christmas.
I think more red and white quilts need to be made in this house.

I love red and white quilts! My first quilt was red and white. I worry about bleeding in the wash, though, and always pre-wash my reds when I buy them. Do you?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Are the little squares 1 inch? A red and white quilt has been on my bucketlist for years, deciding on a pattern is holding up the process. lol.
