Yes I'm Irish, no I don't drink green beer . . .
For St. Patrick's Day I thought I would show
my finished Aloha Quilt.
All batiks, it is a variation on the
log cabin design.
A view from my second floor deck.I love this! Just wish the sun was shining.
I did a piano key border.
A closer view . . . .
The back. The kid is holding it up.
Look! Something taller than the kid!
This quilt is queen size and I must admit
that I slept with it on my bed last night before it goes to it's new home.
I read somewhere that you if you sleep under
a quilt before you give it,
it retains the love you feel for the person receving it.
Corny? Yeah probably, but throw me a bone here.
Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone!!

ReplyDeleteOH Lisa, it is absolutely gorgeous. I just love it. And I think that you should sleep under in for at least a week. That should really send lots more love, doncha think? Great terffic job.

ReplyDeleteMissed this yesterday on St. Patrick's day, but it's just as beautiful today. Was it a difficult pattern to sew?
