I recently had the pleasure of quilting an amazing example of a Baltimore Album Quilt 96" square. This was a four year project of Rhoda Bushnell, a customer of mine. She call this her mourning quilt as she made it in the months and years following her husband death. Here is the kicker, its not hers! She was hired to make it for a friends daughter in AZ. I sure hope she charged enough, not that you ever could. Enjoy the show!

Last row, notice- no borders.
Last but not least, the back.

I can't believe that neither of you get to keep this beauty.....such a lot of work.....no amount of money could buy this I'm sure!
That is spectacular! Everything about is is perfect.
Absolutely beautiful! I love how you have combined feathers, background fill and straight lines. I could never give this up.
I can't even begin to say how beautiful this is. What a feast for my eyes. Thanks for sharing!
I have just spent quite a while on your blog. Do you give free motion lessons Gretchen? I live in Schoharie Co.
