FLOWERS AT THE WINDOW


When the greenhouse manager retired, it took about 1 minute to decide that the quilt had to be flowers. Nothing but flowers would be a lot of work, and this was the result. It's one of my all-time favorites, and I think it's her favorite, too. Every time I look at this picture, it reminds me of my friend, who created beautiful floral arrangements for many occasions, and how I sat in a sunny window, sewing the quilt. I had about a yard of the stone fabric when this quilt was made and wished I had more, but couldn't remember where I bought it. Google searches turned up nothing. Our local fabric shop has a sidewalk sale every July. Guess what was on the clearance table for $3 a yard? Nine yards left on the last bolt came home with me.
