Aunt Linda’s Quilt for Leslie


This quilt was designed by Leslie. She selected the fabric and planned the layout. Surprising to me, the quilt has borders on 3, not 4, sides. One of the long sides has no border. At first I thought she designed the quilt for a day bed, but Aunt Linda said “no”. I guess Leslie likes asymmetrical designs. So do I.
