{Around the House} ~ Amish Quilt: a gift from Mr. Husband's parents many years ago

A while back I heard Mr. Husband 
mention that his parents had
given him a quilt to celebrate his 
long years of scholastic achievement and completion.
That this quilt was made by the Amish in Wisconsin
and was subtle,
a trompe l'oeil ... you either see it all or
see nothing but a blue sheet...perhaps 
seeing that is a quilted blue blanket...


Subtle it is but sublime in it's 
beauty, wreathed with many flowers!


A beautiful boarder.


A Stunning Centre.



A beautiful thing for a Bridge of now
two years to discover in her husband's possessions
newly unearthed!




The artistry, the detail and design is first rate.


A lovely bedspread for winter time,
and my beloved husband's favourite colour.


I am so glad to be married to my 
beloved husband and make
a beautiful home for him!

Finding this most thoughtful gift 
from his parents was just delightful!
