Here it is.  A One More Quilt mug full of goodies.  Enter this drawing by posting a comment to this post ( http://www.onemorequilt.net/blogs/laurel/2009/09/comment_contest )  telling us which quilt pattern is your favorite!

The mug is sitting on an old "Grandmother's Flower Garden" quilt.  When my beloved Aunt Betty passed away, the pieces of this quilt in progress were found in a bag in her basement.  My cousin knew I would do something with it and gave it to me.  Aunt Betty had been piecing the quilt top by hand so that's how I finished the piecing.  I did, however, quilt the quilt on my long arm machine.  Some of the fabrics were a little week with age but I wanted to use all of the original fabrics so I quilted with a close meandering to add strength to the quilt.  I adore having this keepsake.  I love that I was able to finish my aunt's work and bring this quilt to life. 

This is one of my family's favorite "comfort quilts".  In our house, a confort quilt is the one you reach for to help you feel better.  It will comfort you whether you are sick, sad, upset or fighting a winter chill in your bones.

I am anxious to hear about your favorite quilt pattern.  Perhaps you'll make a comfort quilt of your own!

Happy Quilting,
Laurel
