Remembrance

The Scarlet House
Coverlet Birds
Stash linen (36 ct, I think)
NPI silks

This is my remembrance piece--I started this the weekend my eye blew.  Grandmother Bessie taught me to "find a way to make it work."

Here's the back--pretty awesome.  Betty, the finisher is amazing.  I love the way she fussy cut the backing fabric.  The fabric is Farmer Fancy coverlet--makes the piece reversible.

Tomorrow I'm off to the quilt shop, am hoping to find some more Farmer Fancy coverlet fabric to use for the backing for Harry Tyler's lion.
