227 Garnet's Envelope
© 2007 33" x 45" Garnet, my long-time quilting friend, makes wonderful old-looking quilts that always have a special feature like a pieced border or an original quilting design that makes other quilters ask, 'How did you figure that out?' And her answer is often, 'I just drew it out on the back of an envelope,' or 'I just folded an envelope.' The 3-inch blocks in this quilt, inspired by a picture of an antique quilt, remind me of Garnet. If envelopes came printed with graph paper grids on the back, she'd really be in heaven!
