"It just looked like a happy quilt that needed a home!"
That's what the owner of this quilt told me when she sent it to me for repairs. I think that's a lovely reason to buy a quilt, don't you?
What makes this quilt especially fun for me are the blocks that were pieced with a large red and white plaid. Piecing that plaid next to a plain white made the seam lines of the patchwork pretty much disappear, creating a syncopated, modernistic pattern in the midst of this otherwise very quaint, old-fashioned quilt!
