If you are one of those people who feel that is quite difficult to find a gorgeous bedspread these days, check out this pattern. This Crocheted Popcorn Pinwheel Bed Spread by Frances Johnson is a beautiful work of art and the video is inspirational. This woman is simply amazing and her work is so precious. Be ready to feel inspired and amazed!

This piece of American Folk Art is the culmination of 67 years of off and on work. My Granny worked very hard to complete bed spread, be to sure to share this video to keep this memory alive!
