Sampler with embroidery

This was the second quilt I received this year and the first from out of town.  Normally, quilts from out of town only get to me towards the second part of the year, so this was something new.

I almost forgot to post about this, as we have plenty of sports on South African TV, and I seem to be working on my new posture, which will include a flat butt and square eyes.  Some days I start watching the Australian Open tennis at 02:30 in the morning, this will be followed by U19 cricket, women’s cricket and then the SA20 2026 cricket.  We also had a couple of days with 7’s rugby.  If these do not follow each other and overlap, I’d be channel hopping like crazy, and last night only got to bed at 11 pm, but we had fellow cricket fans over, so the visit went on long after the cricket ended.

This quilter claims it took her almost 17 years to finish this, but I think it was worth keeping it and eventually finishing it.
