Pictures to come. The first quilt is put together but needs ironing.

Yesterday, I counted. We needed 84 squares to make the 2 quilts. I have exactly 84 and only one needed to be squared up. You all have outdone yourselves and I thank you. I expected to need to make a few myself. I also expected to need to trim some and add a bit to others. I even considered framing fabric. Butyou all came through. You have made my job so much easier.

I'll post a picture as soon as I get the boarder on it. One person sent in squares that were fabric with stars on it. It worked out perfectly for cornerstones. This fell together too easily.

Judy: Your square arrived today so I will use it as part of the backing. I'm probably going to get a few more so they will be corners for the backing. If I get more than 8, I'll figure out a way to add them in. Aaron and Adrian will love these quilts. They are so beautiful.

I may actually get them finished before the backing fabrics come. Ha, ha...you couldn't have made this easier on me if you had tried.

Thank you to those who contributed to the backing fabric. You easily paid for half. Thanks so much.
