This quilt resulted from a request for a “snaggle-tooth quilt” by Ella’s younger sister, Lucy.  Ella had quite a set of snaggle-teeth herself and a second quilt was quite in order.  Ella became very involved in selecting fabrics that reflected who she sees herself to be.  She was patient in going through dozens of fabrics and made choices that I might never have considered.  This project was a wonderful bonding process for me and both Ella and Lucy during the early months after our move to live near them in Portland.
