Lynne Demeter said… - Thanks so much for the compliment. It was so much fun to make this quilt and I'm so glad everyone seems to like it. This is definitely not a quilt the cats will get to snuggle on. It can't go in the washing machine, so I'll be very careful with how it's displayed!

Suzie Lambert said… - Hi Carolyn - the quilt you commented on was partially put together when given to me to finish with a box of spare fabrics already cut. All the top pieces are hand sewn together. I then used the machine to put on the back and quilt the layers together. I finished this quilt for a movie set - I was fortunate to be able to get the quilt back. I hated to see it thrown away or put into storage after they used it! The top looks to be old flour sack patterns (according to the ladies at my local quilt shop).
