Oh my, a sister quilt of the Dear Jane, and Dear Hannah. Going to go check it out.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! What pretty blocks. I went and read up about the quilt, since I grew up just over the Delaware state line from Chester County. Lovely! I can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteYour appliqué is exquisite. What method do you use
