A Quilt I have not shown before




No sewing going on here - my daughter and son-in-law have been here for a week and my sewing room is my guest room! I love having them - my daughter and I have walked together for the last six days! My husband and son-in-law golfed yesterday and are at it again today - the weather is awesome.
This quilt is a cathedral window rag quilt all out of batiks that I made for my niece for her wedding.

Mary what a gorgeous batik Cathedral Window quilt. Did you use the "rag style" of piecing? It looks like that, but I am not sure. The colors and the different batiks makes this a wonderful quilt and an excellent wedding gift. Thanks for sharing and I love to see some of your previous quilts.
