Ten years ago, we celebrated quilting friend Rinas’ 60th birthday just after a tough chemotherapy session. Her having no hair did not prevent her from having a party.
Last weekend we celebrated her 70th birthday and this time it was a proper party with proper hair. Here Rina is the one standing with a full head of hair.
While partying and having fun I had the loveliest hand applique quilt on the frame. The detail that went into this is amazing and it only took the quilter 5 months to complete and she even made a smaller applique quilt in between.
I could
stare at the perfectly hand-stitched blanket stitches with not one
leg longer or wider than the other for hours.
These are a
few pictures of the detail of some applique shapes.
