Piper Aircraft Quilt
Busy fall and winter. I have not gotten a chance to post anything. I am working on a Theme quilt for the Susquehanna Valley Quilt show end of Feb. Mine will be on Piper Aircraft in Clinton County. Craig went up to the airport museum and met with the museum director and his old boss that he worked with building a made to order plane for Bogata Columbia and they went thru the files to pull out old photo's of cubs, WW2 and the flood in 72, so i can use those to photo transfer into the quilt. I am putting a collection of pictures in the quilt and one of Craigs drawings he made when working in engineering dept at Piper along with the photos, and embroidery, applique and plane blocks. I have about 5 weeks to get this done. I have it in my mind what its going to look like, but once I get the blocks all made, sometimes these take on a different look. I didn't put it on paper yet until I start getting blocks made.
