This quilt was made by a local lady who happens to be 97 years old! It is for her very lucky granddaughter who graduated high school this year.
She made a fancy-edging-flappy-deal around the inside of the squares with the dark green. Im sure there is a technical term for it and that someone out there knows what it is. Please let me know :) I was searching for the right feathery pattern to do in the squares in Sally Terry's Hooked on Feathers book when i saw this one-It was perfect! They were pretty fun to quilt too.
High-loft batting really shows off the quilting on the back. I la-la-loved this quilt! I had a hard time giving it back to her.
I can't believe she fussy cut all the sashing! Truly have to make sure the seam allowance is accurate.
