Ida's Amazing Quilt

Image
How can such a beautiful quilt be captured in a photo?  Well, firstly, recruit some capable chair climbers. Set up, move them to another position for better light and then set up again, 3 times.  (Sorry girls!) Try and coax Ida into the photo... Ta da! Ida lovingly made this quilt and is thinking of sending it to her sister in Europe... IF she likes it!?! Posting it from Australia across all that water is a bit scary but I'm sure it will be OK.  The alternative of course is that she sends me to hand deliver it!  Here are some close up peeks: It is machine pieced with hand stitched applique and then she had it professionally machine quilted. Well, my photos don't capture it's real beauty.  You just have to believe me. Great job Ida!
