FFQFH.... Now that is a great idea for a section of the board- It would make a great cautionary gallery! Oh goodness Fay! I can't stop laughing about what you wrote.... and here I thought it looked like the basketball court was holding up it's middle finger! Like it KNOWS it is a QFH. Funny how something you normally view flat on the floor (a basketball court) looks so different viewed vertically.

To be perfectly serious though MM - you did a superb job! It looks full of school spirit (Heck it will even "whip the bird" at the opposing teams) The fact that you stuck to and finished to something like this?

That is all.
Yes, we have all had those, I feel your pain. Usually they are the quilts that look so innocent, too...glad you are finished.

LOL I loved all the comments about this QFH. A long time ago I made one for my brother and his wife. I asked for the colors she likes and they were not colors I enjoy in any way. But it took 1 1/2 years for me to finish. I hated it. Everytime I worked on hand quilting it......I got a headache. I wanted to throw it out so many times. But I finished. Now my brother and wife are no longer living and I have no idea where that QFH ended up. And I don't really care as long as it didn't end up back with me. LOL.
