On the 9th Day of Christmas


Numerous things caught my eye in this old applique quilt. First do you see that the maker has embroidered their initials? The applique leaves for the border and the beauty of the curving stems on the flowers. Then it looks like they about had it finished but there was some empty space left so they appliqued plumes in the corners. A nice quilt!
