    That's an amazing memory quilt. Is it your own design? You do great work.

    Went to quilt show near Winnipeg, Pine Ridge Hollow, last spring, and took a pic of a similar design, and decided to make it my own. After I made it, I also saw one in a quilt mag showing pics of a trip, with map detailed background fabric. So...no.. the design is not original.The tricky part is determining the angle of the "Film Strips:. Thanks for all the nice comments. By the way, my 11 year old grandson had tears when he opened his present from a very proud Baba.

    Thanks for the explanation! Again, great job.
