I love that you let him design a setting. And the fabric, how perfect.

After I missed the Christmas deadline I finished the squares and told him what I had in mind and told him if he wanted to do another design have at it. the second pic is the design he made. and the third one is of the borders I am using,

I love the way your DH made the design his own - it has a lot of movement and spunk. I'm sure he will love it and you will always remember how it was a collaboration between the two of you, a great symbol of your partnership!
