    I would love to quilt that good. I really like the quilt. It's bright and scrappy.

    You did well with your find and even better with your quilting!

    what a find. i am sure the quilter would have been real proud to have her handy work finished. i'm sure that is the only reason it ended up in a thrift store. she must have gone to heaven.

    I think it would be perfect for picnics, since the circles look like paper plates on a picnic quilt.

    Great find! Your quilting looks really good to me. Hadn't thought of practicing on a top I didn't really like. Need to see where I stashed that thing and get after it. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the tip of using an odd top. Looks like someone went to a lot of work on that quilt top.
