 This snowball quilt was made with old ties.  The quilt was made by an 85 year old woman who can no longer quilt.  I believe she has arthritic hands.  She used to be a seamstress for the Atlantic City Miss America pageant.  Her daughter asked if I could finish the quilt for her.  I did an over all stippling pattern with my longarm and hand sewed the binding.  It was very big.......maybe even King sized.  Too much for me.  The quilts are too heavy at this size.  I will stick to smaller quilts from now on.  I did enjoy working on this quilt.  I think it turned out nicely.
