delld Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Ina May Gaskins sent me these two panel in Feb of this year and I just now finally finished them. I did one about two years ago. Each block is in memory of a woman that died in result of child birth. Here is a picture of the two panels. If you click on the picture you will go to Flickr and will be able to see more of the panels. When you click to Flickr click on the arrow on the left! Thank you for looking. Now you know why I haven't been on the forum. They are 40 inches by about 17 feet! 001 by delld1964, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micajah Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 They are beautiful. I don't think I could have quilted these. It would have been too hard not to cry. God bless you for your good works. Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
