This is the "Main Street" quilt that I have been blessed to receive, courtesy of 2 very special ladies. And the story goes like this...
Judy K, Janet M, and myself all belong to the Dear Jane Secret Pal group. Every year you are assigned a new Secret Pal, and you send gifts to your Pal each month. Last year Judy K. was Janet M's pal and Judy sent Janet these beautiful quilt blocks each month. Now Janet really liked the blocks but her hands were giving her some trouble and she was simply over whelmed with all the quilt tops she already had going, and just didn't think she would get these blocks put together :(
Well each month when Janet received her blocks, I would "oooo" and "ahhh" over them because I love this type of quilt. I call them "story quilts", I don't really know what they are called??? Anyway I L-O-V-E these blocks. Janet decided to be a wonderful sister-in-law and she gave me the blocks, (I just L-O-V-E her, too)!!!
So now I have them all put together and am about ready to begin the hand-quilting process. Has to be hand quilted because there are all kinds of embellishments on this wonderful quilt:) A HUGE "Thank You" to both of you Awesome ladies.
The story doesn't quite end yet...
I love this quilt so much that I found who made the pattern and guess what????
"The Quilt Company" has a few more of these little gems...so I bought 3 more of their patterns: "Country Cluckers", "Autumn Harvest", and ""Holly Lane". Now as much as I L-O-V-E these 2 ladies...my Dear husband would like to get a hold of both of them!!! LOL, just kidding, he loves my quilting too. Hopefully in the future I will be sharing the other 3 quilts here on my blog:)
Love, Hugs, & Blessings,
Terry
God is good, His word is true, and it works in my life.
