Blast from the past.

This quilt is home now.
It's been away for THREE years with my daughter at school.
It's a soft and old fashioned looking quilt.

They're both home now for a while.
I DID wonder if this soft quilt would
hold up to college dorm life!


It DID!
You can see I used what I had......
Even the whites are not all the same.
I LOVE the challenge of USING what I have
when making quilts!
'Cause I have a LOT.
;/

I used the bigger pieces on the back.

My daughter must like this quilt....
She's still using it!
