    I've finished this one. I used to quilt when I was a teenager, and stopped sewing altogether when my son was born, that was 25 years ago. So here's my second quilt since I started sewing again. My sister-in-law is going to quilt it. I'm going to practice FMQ on some potholders or something before I attempt to do a quilt. I should have taken it outside, it looks a little washed out on the kitchen floor.

    You did a wonderful job. The colors are cheerful and well blended. With your skill I hope you won't let another 25 years go by before you make another quilt (smile). Thank you for sharing.
