I originally made this king sized quilt for my parents in 1980. The pattern was in a magazine that I borrowed from our local library. It was called Around the World Quilt-in-a-Day by Eleanor Burns.
Because I knew NOTHING about quilting, I tied embroidery floss at lots of the corners. My sweet parents used this quilt for nearly 40 years before we had to move them into care. At that time I finally reclaimed the quilt, machine quilted it and added a new binding. I guess it could now be called "New and Improved". Lots of sentimental value.
It was kind of cool to refresh this keepsake quilt.
Sew Much Fun!
