On the left is a beaded purse knitted by Ati's mother. I painted a button for Ati to use on a CQ in memory of her mother. The button is large..perhaps about 1 1/4". One of my favorite blocks to work on was one that had Ati's mother's knitted lace on it. Below is the knitted lace and how I worked around it. She is so lucky to have these wonderful tangible memories... I'll be popping it into the mail to Ati in Norway Monday!!!
