It's a beautiful thing -- and yes, the "torture" we all go through to find just the right fabrics is just awful :roll: :roll:

Sheesh .... That quilt looks huge! It is very nice work getting it to this stage. I pray you are able to get it done in time. Have you planned out the quilting yet?

Thanks everyone! :D
Yes, I'm going to machine quilt it...my new little Janome will be getting a workout! lol
It will be very simple quilting, probably a corner-to-corner diagonal grid with stitch-in-the-ditch around the blocks. We'll see how it goes. :wink:
I can't believe how heavy it is already....and it's only a top!!!

I wanted to do something a little different for this quilt. At first, toyed with the idea of doing Ocean Waves...until I did one sample block! Decided I might never finish that one, so switched to my old faithful - the single Irish Chain. Figured, if you can put a heart in the Ocean Waves, should be able to do it here too. The hard part was not having a place for a design wall...so I just kept my design print-out next to the machine & crossed off each row as I went, and labeled it with the row number. I wasn't actually positive that I got the heart right until that picture was taken!!! :lol: :D :D
