“Wuthering Heights”

Around ten years ago now, I made a twin sized quilt top from the fabric collection “Wuthering Heights” by 3 Sisters for Moda. I had the backing fabric and several of the coordinating fabrics, but, somehow never got around to quilting the top. Just recently my dear mother-in-law had to change from a queen sized bed to a twin due to space limitations in her assisted living apartment. This was just the motivation for me to finish up the quilt.

Since DMIL’s birthday is in late December, I wrapped the quilt with both Christmas and Birthday paper!

I shipped it, she called, she liked it! I don’t think she will mind my telling you, it was for her 92nd birthday!

    Very nice. Your binding finished by machine looks nice & neat too. I always struggle with that. Looks like you’ve got that nailed. Saves so much time too.
