It Comes From Within


"It Comes From Within " is a quilt which was offerered in 2008 as a no mail round robin on the quiltsbykos yahoo group. I was quick to get the top finished but then it sat on a shelf in my sewing room. I decided to get it finished so that it would no longer be a UFO (unfinished object). Having a day off work this week due to a snowstorm (we got nearly 13 inches of snow!) gave me some extra time to work on it. I was able to finish it today. This wallhanging is 34" square and will be one of several that I can alternately put above my fireplace. The center square was a block that I had, made by my paternal grandmother. She was a quilter and probably the reason I'm a quilter today. Quilting is part of my heritage. That makes the title of this little quilt especially meaningful.
