You Have To Kiss a Lot of Frogs

By Melody Randol

I suspect few among us are without frogs in our pasts. Through experience we find a princely appearance cannot compensate for toadish behavior. We begin to identify the attributes of a true prince. And how lucky one is to ultimately discover a princely partner - a wonderful blend of friend, lover, confidante and companion.

The fun of this quilt is in finding a little bit of everything: a lovely rendition of David, endearing frogs created by thread-painting hand-dyed fabrics, a big fat kiss quilted in the sky, and other surprises. The cotton fabrics and batting are machine pieced, embroidered, appliqued, and quilted with cotton, rayon and silk threads.
