Ties off Square

Posted by Picasa This quilt was made from the ties of my doctor's deceased father and a few of his own. It was made for his mother as a Mother's Day gift two years ago now. I used some ties and some washable satin for the center strings, minky as sashing and backing, and tie scraps for the corner posts. I was told the recipient was thrilled with the quilt and naps with it every day. The picture does not show true colors.

  2. Ditto. Brings back memories of Myrtle Beach...swaying in the wind on that top floor penthouse. Love the new layout, too.
