Uh oh, a spool is unraveling! Refresh and try again.
Description:

Poetry in Muslin places handwritten words among pieced blocks made from Mary Koval's Mary’s Muslins fabrics. Susan McDermott's 32-by-36-inch quilt combines thirteen poetry blocks with twelve snowball blocks in a five-by-five arrangement. Poems, vows or quotations are written on the center fabrics with a brown permanent marker before the surrounding pieces are added. Motif-centered snowballs alternate with these framed words, and striped borders of different widths complete the outer edge.
