For Kelly

This is an old hand pieced double wedding ring quilt top.  There are always some issues with an old  quilt. A few stains here and there, some fullness, a couple open seams, and never quite square. I originally thought i would do some cross hatching but once i got going, i felt that might cause some of the fullness in the quilt to pucker and tucks would start happening.  So i opted for a feather design with simple stippling. A bit more forgiving.


This is really a beautiful quilt and once it is finished and bound...no one will ever see the little issues....and personally i love the stains, the fullness....it's beautiful.
