Sarah's Handkerchief Quilt |
This is a quilt my sister and I worked on together. It was made from handkerchiefs that
belonged to our grandmother and grandaunt. The handkerchiefs were basted onto the
rose-colored squares by my sister using a running stitch. The top was machine-pieced
by my sister.
Nancy E. Miller pieced the backing and hand-quilted roses in the handkerchiefs, as well as in the setting triangles, then hearts in the outer border. |
