Score!!!


This quilt has been on my To-Do bucket list for more than 20 years.  The pattern is copyright 1995, and has long been out of print and extinct.  I unexpectedly stumbled across this intact original never-been-used pattern set on ebay the other day, and instantly ordered it -- and it has now arrived into my hot little hands!!!

My quiltmaking skills in general, and my applique skills in particular, have greatly improved during the past 20 years, so the time must be right at last for me to undertake this lifetime-level project.  I'm expecting it to be a several-year undertaking.

Thinking about colors ...
