Friends and Quilting Just Go Together

It is the President's Day weekend and our friend, Edna, has come for a visit.  We all got together for the four F's, friends, food, fun, and flexibility, at Marhsa's house.  Edna brought a couple quilts with her, for Show N Tell.  Marsha and I (Kirsten) hung them on the wall for photos.
This is Edna and her 'African Coins' quilt
Edna's other quilt, she explained, has one splash of green and some baby chick fabric, so she calls it the "Chicken and Greens" quilt.  She said she used a variegated brown thread to quilt it, so in some places the quilting looks dark and in others, light.  
Edna explained how she made this quilt.
The wall paper at Marsha's makes it difficult to see the light binding all the way around the quilt.  She hand-stitched the binding down on the back of the quilt.  It looks so perfect.

We had alot of fun!  Friends and quilting just go together.
