LuAnn's finish!


A friend whom I met at the Alabama Folk School over a year ago, Luann, sent me an email with pictures of her first COMPLETE quilt.   Way to go LuAnn!

She says:
Now don't look too close, but, I wanted to show you my first completely finished quilt! Machine quilted on my Juki! All straight lines (somewhat), of course, but I hand stitched the binding! After I got home from my time at quilt camp, I bought a TON of scraps from a girl I met that makes these cooling bandanas. All 100% cotton, but mainly all cut into many sized (as in small) triangles! The center squares of this quilt are made from a variety of pinks, but, mainly one particular print of breast cancer logos! So, I found a way to camo the breast cancer print and still use it!
Anyway, wanted you to see that I am still at it! And, loving every minute! ~ LuAnn
