Comments
The blocks in this quilt were created by the members of Match-a-Patch Bee as a gift to me after serving as bee coordinator in 2006 and 2007. After receiving such a beautiful set of blocks, I thought "Oh dear, How can I properly display each person's work?" I decided to showcase the blocks with an elaborate border in the "Dear Jane" tradition and quilt by hand.
