    WhitePine, I love your quilt. The only reason I added so many blocks is that I needed it much bigger. Yours is gorgeous and all the blocks go together so well.

    All I can say is, Oh My Goodness...........it's just gorgeous!! I love what you have done with your border all the way around it. It makes me look so far behind, but what an inspiration for me to get busy again!! I can't thank you enough for sharing with all of us. I have to say this is my most favortie quilt top project of all time & I can't wait to get mine put together. Thank you everyone for the wonderful inspiration that you have given to all of us!!

    Whitepine.........WOW!! Your house quilt top has turned out just as gorgeous as Nicky's & I LOVE IT too!! You girls have so impressed me so much, that I just want to get into my sewing room right now & start getting mine put together. I am currently working on two mystery tops that are almost done, then for sure I will be working on mine. Wonderful work Whitepine, thank you so much for sharing.

    Ok, ladies, here are a few pics of the finished quilt! I will be entering it in our two local quilt shows, put on by the Sierra Quilt Guild in Sonora and the Independence Hall Quilters in Arnold. I am so pleased that is is finally done!

    Nicky, Very cool!! I love the tree beside the castle. Did you find a pattern for that one? Also love the mountains. I think I can even design that myself and use as corners in my last border. A 'must' since we have so many mountains around here.
