Well Helen loves quilting!
It's one of her passions as you can see from another project completed this summer.
This is for a young man who is going to high school in Toronto, at a boarding school, so this is to keep him warm as he studies!
My friend Helen, does lots of hand work, embroideries that are tiny, intriquate, the right side looks the same as the wrong side.
She makes patterns, she loves the challenges of my
asking, about this and that. Well now she is doing a fan quilt, which was an idea we discussed this summer.This is Helen, a beautiful woman with a beautiful set of hands that do wonder works with a needle and thread.
She knits very difficult patterns for the challenge of it all and does simple works for people in need.
I'm very fortunate to have her close to me to aid and inspire. Thank you Helen.

Egads, I HATE having my picture taken! Nanci, you are a rascal but of course I love you for being so. The Quilting Sisterhood and your blog allow me the joy and pleasure of meeting so many fabulous women. Thank you for honouring me as you do. I don't deserve it but I do enjoy it.
Helen (your P.T.)
this is a beautiful quilt
Helen sounds like a fabulous friend. Thanks for posting her picture. True good friends like her are precious jewels in a woman's life.
Lovely to put a face to Helen! What a gorgeous smile.
Another beautiful quilt by your personal teacher. It's wonderful to see a picture of her, and yes Helen you are BEAUTIFUL, both inside and out :0)
