Courthouse Steps



I made this quilt for my dear friend, Anna Marie to celebrate being friends for more than 30 years. It's Courthouse Steps, a log cabin variation.
Quite awhile after I had given the quilt away, Anna Marie noticed that there was a big pin inside it. I took it back to get the pin out, It was a large T-pin that I had used to stretch the backing to the carpet when i was pin basting it. I had to pick a small area apart to get the pin out, then resew it. That's the first time that ever happened in my quilt making history!
