So much life going on! We moved into our new home, I got to stand on the floor of the NYSE as my husband stood on the balcony to help ring the bell for his company, we celebrated our 20th Wedding Anniversary in Aruba, our dog went through 15 weeks of cancer treatments, my brother ended up on the hospital for about 3 months, and so much more all in 12 months; but guess what? During all that, my Botanical Quilt, from the VA Quilt Museum sew along, was on Display at the VA Quilt Museum AND travelled all the way to Houston, TX for the 2018 International Quilt Festival. There is much to be thankful for during so much craziness.

| The ONLY ORIGINAL; the FIRST block patterns; although another sells these block patterns as their own original, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL QUILT, period. |
