FOUNDATIONS

FOUNDATIONS: This quilt started out as an entirely different quilt, but the longer I looked at the planned design, the less I liked it. So, typical of quilters, I rearranged the pieces and fabrics and came up with this design. I am sure it is known by a different name, but I was thinking our our American heritage as I was working with these reproduction fabrics and decided that the while I love the foundation of our country, I am not real thrilled with the current direction it is headed. We have lost site of the moral and Biblical values this country was founded on, and that loss has not improved our country.

I pieced this quilt while in Caribou, Maine in Sept. 2012 and it was machine quilted by RLM in Dec. 2012. The top is 100% cottons, the batting polyester, and the backing is navy blue linen. I finally got the binding on it in Dec. 2013. Size is: 51" square. (#1015)
