"The Princess and the Pea"

A square for a quilt, a quilt for a bed, a bed for a princess. This year marks 200 years since the birth of Hans Christian Andersen and, being of Danish descent, I wanted to celebrate one of his works. I could think of no better motif for a quilt than The Princess and The Pea though I feel certain that the winner will be more comfortable under this quilt, than the princess was on her many mattresses. What better lure for the sandman, than the many story motifs portrayed on a StorySave quilt? Stories to send us to sleep... or to wake us up!
