Today just a picture to share with you this precious gift I received from a sweet blogger friend, before I open it and start using those lovely Liberty fabrics!

New Home for an Antique Quilt
My Scrappy Stars antique quilt travelled with me to France. I thought it would be of the best decorative effect in my old French house. I have displayed it in the garden on an antique bench to take pictures.
I came back to Greece a few days ago after a long time in France (two months and a half!). I thought I would escape from the excessive Greek summer heat, but I had an exceptionally hot summer in France, and coming back here I find an exceptional heat for September... not lucky! It is definitely not a temperature to start quilting...

Ohio Stars
This Ohio Star lap quilt is my third one. I did it for my mother more then twenty years ago. It was displayed in her lounge, she enjoyed it a lot and though washed too many times, it had remained in a good condition.
I hand pieced it and hand quilted it.
The size is 46" x 46", and each Ohio Star block measures 10.5" x 10.5".
