Michael's Clever Nanny




Mum made Michael this beautiful quilt. She designed it herself. It's a log cabin with lots of applique and freemotion embroidery. I addicted my mum to quilting a few years back and I think her skills are now surpassing mine. Her "stash" isn't as big as mine yet but she's working on it!

When I saw it I made the classic comment, "Oh that's too beautiful to be thrown up on!" But quickly told her it would be, as she loves her quilts to be used.
