Uncork Those Bottles!

I just finished a small wall quilt or table runner for my cousin who lives in the wine country of California. She and I have had some mighty wonderful visits over a few glasses of wine. She just moved into a new house and I wanted to make something quilty for her.

This is "Thanks for the Memories." It is paper pieced and machine quilted and is about 18 inches by 27 inches. After I had it nearly completed, I wished I'd thought to leave at least one cork out of the bottle so I could name it "Uncorked."

But my friend DB always says, "It is what it is!" Here's to a few drops of wine being spilled on it in its new home!
