“Real Quilters”

October 23, 2013 By Lisa Berentsen

I took my granddaughter to her first quilt show the other day. We noticed that there were some “Real Quilters” there- the threads on our clothes gave us away.

She was interested before the show, but, once she saw the beautiful quilts, she could hardly wait to design and make her first quilt.

She designed a log cabin variation. We’re scaling it back to 12 blocks so she’ll be able to complete it without short changing her homework.
