FINALLY FINISHED A QUILT PROJECT


After being in the new town and in the new house for umm  several months. I had a reason to make me work on some quilts.. For my sister who has patiently waited.... and waited, and for my nephew and his new wife who didn't have to wait and wait. It was fun to get sewing again. I love this strip quilt!!
