Long Time Coming

My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding anniversary. This quilt didn't take as long to make but because I put the squares away for so long it still comes in at the longest amount of time from beginning to end for me--22 years. Luckily I still had most of the fabrics so I could make two extra blocks. I did discover that 22 years ago my eyesight was better and my stitches were smaller but all my work is simply for family so that doesn't matter or bother me much.

 My husband didn't remember this so the whole thing was a surprise and a delight to him. Not bad after so many years.
