When students are learning English as a Second Language, they are classified as ELL's - emerging language learners. This quilt I made when I was an EQM - an emerging quilt maker. My primitve basting method means there are nice big folds in the backing. My straight-line quilting isn't so straight. The binding was pretty horrible - I didn't even know how to miter corners! And let's not even talk about the quilting in the quilt. I did this on a domestic machine with a small harp, and this quilt is 84" x 104".
With the old binding cut off and the new binding security attached, this quilt has a primitive beautify and softness and is good to go for another 25 years. Quilters give quilts away. So it's great to be able to have my hands on something I made and see how it's lasted. This quilt will be very happy in its St. Joe, Michigan, home with my sister.
