Sewing on the road from Northern Deb Quilts

Al and I are on our way to my brother's farm in the U.P. of Michigan. They called us to say they needed help with the harvest...which means they've canned all they are able to and would like us to haul tomatoes and other stuff back home.

Blue and White Quilt Top from Northern Deb Quilts

It's not a rush...I have PLENTY more UFOs to work on.

This one started YEARS ago as a class sample. I was teaching from a book with lots of jelly roll quilts. I had a finished sampler quilt to show the class ...
