Esther's Quilt

This is a shot of Esther's quilt on the long-arm quilting machine. The quilt was delivered to the customer tonight. Esther did a great job of really persevering to get the quilt done in time.

Years ago I used to tell the ladies: "I don't want you to work so hard that you get sick."

Their response: "It's the work that's keeping us well."

Quilter Extraordinaire

Once in awhile we get a rush order for a quilt. I have a handful of women of women who can do really fast, quality work. The customer requested turquoise and brown in one of our usual geometric patterns. The order was very straightforward--nothing unusual. I gave Esther the materials that you see on Friday afternoon at 3:30. Let's check in with Esther on Monday to see how far she has gone.
