Hugs for Joann - The red velvet in this quilt is fabric left over from the bride's maids dresses from 1958 when the owner was married. She gave it to me, told me to make some dresses for my granddaughters, but it was too heavy for that so I made it into a quilt and returned it to her for Christmas. There were a couple extra pieces so I also made matching pillows and gave one to each of her sons with a note about the origin of the fabric. I quilted poinsettas and holly leaves in gold metallic thread.
