    I was asked to do the longarming on this quilt. Here is the story,... my friend received a call from someone who said" I just can not sew any more... I don't want alllll of my fabrics.... I have packed up my sewing room and please come over and get all of my boxes." My friend went and picked them allll up. As she was going threw the boxes to incorporate them into her stash, she comes across this quilt. It is all done with the exception of the mitered corners.... that's it, and it is buried in with all the fabric. So I was asked to longarm something pretty, so that she can give it back... with the hope it will re-inspire the love of sewing and quilt to her bewildered friend.

    Thank you for taking a look and thank you alllll out there for keeping the love and inspiration alive.
