Pink Quilt in My Office

Decorating with Quilts

I pull out quilts all the time, I have had to stop painting so much, meanly with my knee replacement, but also, it’s exhausting for me now. Fingers crossed that comes back, our guest bath is calling, “Paint me.” So now it’s a different quilt to make things look new. 
Here’s the quilt that is on the back of my Chair at my computer now
I took a border class I think when we lived in Windom, MN, YEARS ago, 30+
It measures about 14″ x 20″ perfect chair back size.

Each block is 5″ x 5″

Machine Pieced and I hand quilted, I would quilt it more now, but that’s just me, can’t leave anything alone.
