thank you all! My "Lovin' Man" is putting it together and so far there has been no cussing, so I think it is going well! I will be hand quilting with it. For some reason, I really enjoy hand quilting. I am going to try and give the Aunt Becky a try that Pam gave me! I hope I can get the hang of it, I just now got used to using a thimble (really still working on that) my hands really took a beating! I am so excited though. I will take pictures when it is up and has a quilt in it!
