A beautiful quilt with a very sad but beautiful story and I don't think Ann will mind me sharing it with you. Ann's sister chose the design and purchased the fabrics for the blocks many years ago. Ann was doing the appliqué when her sister was killed in a tragic accident. This left Ann not wanting to finish the quilt, understandably... for a very long time the blocks stayed packed away... Ann brought the blocks to show to us, of course we encouraged her to quilt them and to finish the quilt. It was going to be a large quilt, as you can see by the size of the blocks. Ann's sister has two, now adult daughters... both are going to be given a lovely sofa throw/lap quilt, designed and chosen by their very own mum, to snuggle up to on the sofa... or so sit on the sofa as a cushion if they prefer, The second quilt is almost finished too... what a lovely Auntie Annbacan they have, toot toot toot Ann, it's beautiful... the story and the quilt! |
