My online community of quilters gathered (virtually) in 2014 to make a quilt for Megan D, who was really struggling with a big loss. We asked for 12.5" blocks in her favorite colors, purple and orange, with a gray background. Since Megan loves octopi, I used this bit of clip art:
I decided to make this massive octopus embracing all the blocks.

The resulting quilt is BIG - about 90"x100"
Once this was put together, it was sent off to a long arm quilter. We thought it was lost for 2 years (a very long and frustrating story.) Finally it was recovered and quilted by Janet, then bound and delivered to Megan, who loves it.
Blocks were made by: Paula, Janet, Sam, Kimberly, Adva, Linda, Melissa, Melissa, Maddie, Flaun, Jean, Megan, Kim, Trish, Alice, Chelley, Barbara, Deborah and Tama.
We are so glad this quilt is home with Megan D.
Peace
