First Gift

First Gift is my take on the classic “Celtic Twist” or “Round the Twist” block combination which dates back to the 1800s. My grandmother used this design to create my baby quilt. It was the first of many gifts that she gave to me, including her gift of quilting and creativity. This is the first quilt in the Lois Quilt Collection.
