I'm thankful I had the privilege to long-arm quilt an antique 1930's quilt lovingly hand pieced by Merle Covington of Pottsboro, Texas. She is the grandmother of my friend Margaret Walters, who mentioned that Ms. Merle was a wonderful country woman who worked hard into her late 70's. She died five years ago and would have been 100 this September! Lots of wild colors in the quilt that could have been men's shirts and child clothing from a long ago time.
Now Margaret and her family have a great finished quilt and a peek into her grandmother's past.
BSoleille!
