MAY'S THROWBACK THURSDAY

This month for Throwback Thursday I thought I would show you the first quilt I had published in Quilter's Newsletter Magazine way back in March 1984 ---- my, that was a long time ago!

Here it is as it appeared in the magazine.  It is a traditional quilt done in the 'strippy style'.  I think that it is funny that they included it in the "Modern Quilting" section.  Compared to today's modern quilting movement, there is nothing modern about it.  
The quilt is queen-sized, machine-pieced, and hand-quilted.
Times certainly have changed in the quilting world, but some things remain the same.
I still like a strippy-set quilt, but today they are turned horizontally and called a row quilt!!!
