Civil War BOW #2 Quilt
This is my quilt #2 that is made from blocks #31 - 51. I made these blocks 5" finished except for ' Order Number 11' which is the original 8" and put in the corners, I will be adapting blocks #52 and 53 into my label on the back . I loosely based the design on Martha Washington's 'unfinished bed cover, c 1790. The top is 72" square and it is booked to go to my marvelous long arm quilter.I will be asking her to quilt one of the block design in the outside corners squares as I was really impressed with the quilt we all viewed a couple of weeks ago!! My thanks go to Justcrusin for coming to the rescue with a bit more of the stripe in the 2nd last border. Its great having a sister who is a fellow patch-worker and a friend and I am blessed with two of them!! I am making my Civil War blocks #1-30 into another quilt and quilting it quilt-as-you-go and have fallen a little behind with it but should have it finished in a day or so!!
