True Blue


True Blue, (pattern by Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Company,) was my first "full-size" quilt. It measures 80x80 and was so much fun to make! I really think, though there are so many quilts and so little time, that I will make this one again... just for the fun of it! It gave me such a feeling of early success... I KNEW I could make quilts!

I gave it to my husband for his bedroom at our farm in the country. The farmhouse is 125 years old this year... the room is done in old fashioned blues, and has an antique full size bed. True Blue fits the bed perfectly, and is right at home!

Also, my hubby is a very true blue guy~
