This Cleos Block Patchwork Quilt measures 96 x 112 inches and fits a Queen size bed. There are approximately 6 handquilted stitches per inch. Quilted by Pennsylvania Mennonite Quilting Bee (in some areas of the quilt top, the marking for the quilting is dark and quite apparent).

Faith, a woman who loves to sew and quilt, and who loves volunteering her talents to help others, has pieced this quilt in the PA Dutch area of Pennsylvania (south central PA).  This Quilt has heavy marks for the quilting in both red and green pencil (so the paths to quilt on could be visible to the older members of the Bee), and was quilted at a Mennonite Quilting Bee. There are rows of intricate quilting - of the same Cleo’s Block pattern) between the blocks (lengthwise), and this complexity in quilting adds to the appeal of this quilt.
