From Sam: I started this quilt in 2005 while living on a barrier island in Florida and completed it in July, 2007 in North Carolina. I remember taking the material with me for hurricane evacuations and putting my sewing machine in the refrigerator and the stove for safety! I had very little time to sew, and finally packed it away until after my move.
This is my second quilt, and I bought a book to teach myself about foundation piecing. My first quilt was done about 15 years ago, so getting back to sewing was a treat, and foundation piecing was even more fun than I had imagined.
