My friend Judy and I each made quilts in 1988. We used the strip-quilting method—I am not a quilter. This was just tied, not stitch quilted. It was king-sized and took a long time. It was on our bed when our daughter was conceived. It is now falling apart from 30 years of use. Now others can enjoy it.
