Checks Please


I added some red and white check curtain panels to either end of the 
family room window.  I didn't want to do more than just add a touch of
color to each end because the view to the back yard is pretty and the
room is already dark.  



Here is the other end of the window.  Did I ever show you this 
beautiful quilt?  It was all hand stitched by David's mother.  She loved
to quilt and she lovingly made many beautiful ones for the family.
She is the one who inspired me to start quilting.


Have a wonderful Saturday!

Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  10. The red checked curtains are beautiful touch to your room. Your room is gorgeous anyway. That view out the window is so pretty, I would not want to block that either.

  11. LOVE your red checked curtains! What an heirloom in that beautiful red and white quilt. It looks like it was made to go there in that chair next to those curtains.!!
