After quilting one whole cloth quilt, Janet and Kathy wanted to refine their long arm techniques with a second one. So, they looked through Mother's stash and found a couple of pieces to make another whole cloth, practice quilt. Mother says they thoroughly enjoyed going through her boxes of fabrics. I hope so, as I find it to be a big chore! The fabrics selected were one bright flannel piece that Sally had purchased and gladly donated to the cause and a red coordinating piece, not flannel but with texture. The back of this quilt was 2 flannel pieces from Mother's stash; gray and dark green.
