My mother made this quilt for me as a wedding present. She explained at the wedding that the interlocking circles symbolized the joining of families. It was a wonderful gift and will have it forever.
Nice!
I’m making this for my daughter. She got married this past June. I had guests sign muslin squares, and I’m going to use those as the other side. It’s coming out nice! Thanks for the great pattern, McCalls!!
