Have you heard of Quilter’s SOS- Save Our Stories?
Quilter’s SOS is a part of the non- profit organization, Quilt Alliance is a nonprofit 501c3 organization established in 1993 Pretty powerful mission Mark Dunn, president of Moda fabrics is on the executive |

The quilt patten is a double Irish Chain and the only rule in the swap was we all had to use the same pink solid as the background. Each of us chose a different fabric to use as our setting fabric. As shown above, Angie choose a romantic floral by Concord fabrics. Those of you that have been quilting for over 25 years are sure to have owned a piece of this fabric.
Why did it take me so long to finish the quilt top? I would like to say that Angie’s boys were 6, 4 and 2 at the time so they probably were not interested in a pink floral quilt. Maybe it was to painful to work on, I don’t really know.

A few months later, Kirk sent me a picture he had found of Angie actually piecing this quilt top. Of course you can barely see the quilt pieces on that colorful bedspread.(so 80’s)
I will treasure the picture as it completes the circle on my Quilter’s S.O.S.
Thank you to Quilt Alliance-Alliance of American Quilts for letting me permanently document my story for future generations.
