Slow Stitching Surprise. Progress On My Grandmother's Flower Garden.

Slow Stitching Surprise.
Do you remember this project?  It was a quilt along from Carole at From My Carolina Home.  She called it Autumn Jubilee.  

In this post I said there was a surprise twist to it and then I never showed you "the twist" that I added at Christmas!

Tada!  Here it is!

Here's the "Fall Side".

I made a few changes.

I added beads instead of buttons.

(Didn't have any buttons to match.)

I didn't add the bottom layer of wool.

And I made it reversible!

This was my daughter's idea.

I like it.  :)

We all know wool is expensive.

But I am hooked.

I may make  more candle mats as gifts.

Progress On Our 

Grandmother's Flower Garden

Many of you have seen this picture of the Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt. The reason I call it "ours" is simple. 

When I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, my daughter jumped in and started helping me to make it.  So, it is ours.  

The top row should be all connected by tonight, tomorrow at the latest.  

My daughter and I...

well...this quilt is so special.  

I'm so glad God healed me 

so that we can continue to work together on this beautiful expression of 

love, tenacity and beauty.

I love it.

I really do.
