Autumn Rose 2



I had enough of the rose print material to make a second one of these whole cloth quilts. Mother had this red striped twill fabric in her stash, so the quilt had the happy result of using up a larger piece in the stash.

This quilt was also QC'd by Coco.

This quilt will go into the donation box. But I imagine it, and the first one, used by someone with a rental cabin that needs to keep twin beds ready for guests. Well, only in my imagination do the Autumn Rose quilts wind up in the same bedroom. I think this one and the first one will go to Hope House. They were donated to Hope House February 2013.
