After locking myself in the front room with the air on high I finally managed to complete Hannah's high school graduation quilt--she graduated in 20011!

When I start a project .... I finish a project.

This is a sweet full size quilt-machine pieced and 'hand' quilted. Honestly, I thought I would never find the time to finish this, but slow and steady-occasionally putting it 'away' for a while only to dig it back out again when the urge hit me to quilt.

What's that saying? "Better late than never?"

Beautiful Mel.

A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.
