Gee's Bend style

My Gee's Bend style small quilt

Mary Ann Pettway signature on my quilt along with
  Mary Ann Pettway was making a quilt at our retreat and I went around and picked up the scraps she put back in the pile and made a small quilt that I thought might have a Gee's Bend feel.  Both the ladies generously signed my little quilt.
Now to hand quilt it Mary Ann style.

Happy sewing,
Kim

    Looks great and to be able to put it together in a retreat setting is great! Hand quilting it will set it off finely. Nice job
