This little quilt is made from the dresses of the mother of a close friend. Her mom passed away last month and I am hoping that the quilt will be a happy reminder of her mother. Of course, my girls are very interested and think that it belongs to them!

Texas Patriot
This quilt was made as a retirement gift for a colonel in the US Army who has devoted his entire life to service to our country. He is a native Texan and I thought that this would be a fitting retirement gift. The quilt is a "grid quilt" and is made of over 450 21/2" squares that then were placed to form the shape of the Lone Star State. I even used some Texas A&M fabric, which was very hard for me but he has two children who graduated from A&M. Personally, I am a UT girl. I hope that he likes the quilt!
