A Mini Treat to See

My friend and co-worker, Starlyn Baker just got back from a vacation during the month of July where she travels home to see family in Alabama and Texas. She worked on this fantastic quilt top while on her trip, and I'm in awe and just had to share it with you. Each patch in the nine patch square is 1/2 inch finished, with the whole nine patch finishing at 1 1/2 inches.

You can click on the picture to get a more close up view of all the great Civil War Reproduction fabrics. Starlyn and a friend of hers have been swapping the nine patches for a while ~ and she wants keep this baby growing to become a full size bed quilt! It's just breathtaking!

Enjoy the day!
