~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The more I look at this wildly inventive quilt -- technically a Fans design -- the more I see how carefully and ingeniously the quilt maker organized it. The Crazy Quilt border is the perfect finish.
I wonder if s/he might have been seeing it as I do ... A Multitude of Sunrises ... Or Rising Phoenixes? Tunnels of Love? Kleig Lights? That's some of what I see, and it all makes me smile.
Excellent condition, and a good size for hanging -- if you dare...
