| Brynwood Needleworks - Jane's Quilt |
After inspecting the wedding ring quilt, I decided against it. However, I'm so glad to be the new owner of the beautiful applique' quilt I shared a couple days ago. I can now show you the newly cleaned and lovely design.
The quilt measures approximately 87" x 100", and features meandering vines with leaves and tulips. Each leaf is about 4" long.

All the motifs are impeccably stitched, and the leaves are accented with additional embroidery. The quilting is done by hand, as well.

After washing and drying the quilt, I noticed mustard-colored thread in one corner of the binding. Upon closer inspection, I was elated!

Jane embroidered the year into her quilt! Not only that, but it's my birth year! I guess I was meant to be the new owner. I sure feel fortunate that it's now mine.

| Brynwood Needleworks - Jane's Quilt - Accent Strip |
The last feature I noticed was a lovely, soft yellow strip on the top of the quilt, also featuring leaves.
I love everything about this quilt. It's soft, lovely, and so beautifully crafted by our friend's mom - a woman I also knew. Jane's legacy of lovely quilts will live on in the homes of many people who purchased them this past week...including me.
