| Dave got my phone number from a friend who had driven a sag vehicle for us on a bike ride. Strange how I meet my customers sometimes. Seems that Dave's grandmother had given him this quilt top in the 1950's. Dave had asked me about hand quilting it, but (sadly), I wasn't willing to take on that large of a hand quilting project for someone else. He agreed that we could finish it by machine though, and seemed pleased with the results. |

Just a straight line through the logs, and SID around the red "Hearths".
Here's a few shots of the quilt top before I quilted it. Since it was pieced by stitching the fabrics to a muslin background, I was glad that I hadn't agreed to hand quilt it. It would have been so much more difficult to rock a needle through the quilt top, then the muslin underlay, then the batt and finally the backing. I still think it looks beautiful, and Dave said that he was going to try it out the night that he picked it up.
