I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.

Garden Party - Top DONE
What happened to my plan of "only smaller tops"??? This is 83 x 83". Frankly it WAS just plain fun to keep using all the combinations of fabric. mmmm I've said that about a previous quilt ..."couldn't stop making the blocks."
The backing is white with quarter-sized polka dots! Exactly what it needs, MORE COLOR! LOL
And yes, it looks exactly like Bonnie Hunter's with same name. I really didn't want to copy hers - it was just so adventuresome, and tedious, I was afraid to make it any other way.
