Danelle's Quilt

Evelyn acquired her late mother's quilts and now is having them quilted. This one is for Evelyn's granddaughter, Danelle, and I know she will love it for a great keepsake from her great-grandmother!

Every color of the rainbow in gingham and solids! The pattern was meant as an autograph block, but it works just fine as is!

So bright and light and quilted in white thread.


Irene's Swirls was the quilting pattern.

Nicely done!
