How beautiful! I'll bet it put a smile on both of your faces to see what you were both able to create! (Remember, he picked the material!) :mrgreen:

wow Colleen! that is beautiful! i am so excited after seeing this. long story short, i'm working on an asian block-of-the-month for my daughter (adopted from Vietnam) and this would be perfect to coordinate with it! i can use the 'scraps'! i've just inquired via e-mail from my local quilt shop to see if they can get the pattern by Betty Blais.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Great Job..To bad you didn't get a picture of his face when he saw it!

That is just gorgeous. Are you going to make it a wall hanging? It is "suitable for framing," it is so good!

What a nice Christmas story too!
