Provence by Carol

As soon as Carol saw the quilt (and that was while I was putting the binding on!!! and not released) she put in an order, Sandra made her a kit and she has finished it for her bed. She had it quilted and it looks fantastic!!

I love to see my customers finished quilts, Carol has done a great job!

I am still working away getting the patterns from the Quilted Crows Autumn gathering finally finished and hopefully they will be ready early next week…stay tuned for a giveaway when I am done!
