I know I talked about this in chat several times and it's been one heck of a long time getting it done but here it is.

I took close up of the blocks so you could see them better so bear with me on up loading them. There are 18 pictures.

One last remark I forgot to add. This is Christmas present for my 14 yr old GD so I plan to put a note in with it that reads:
"This is the only man you are allowed to snuggle up and sleep with"

She has such a good sense of humor I know she will laugh her butt off.

this measures about 83 x 70
