Thanks for the link to the Carpenter's star, Betty - you're an "enabler", you know lol
I won't be making it because I have a lot on my plate already, and she did the tutorial so quickly that I couldn't figure it out anyway lol Ah well.
Here's a picture of my grandma's quilt. It's a crazy quilt, for sure, for a single bed. I added the large borders on it to make it a little more stable on the edges, and make it larger. The butterfly was under a piece of fabric that was disintegrating. I don't know who embroidered it, but it was so sweet to find. The snail etc were showing.
I had to applique new material over some blocks where the fragile material was shot. The last picture shows how it was when I first got it back. Heartbreaking.
All I have are these pictures (I have more than this, but still......... just the pictures) but if I get it back, I'll show more.
