Mama does love it! She is so proud, she is showing it off to her church!
Thank you for your positive feedback.
Things I learned on this Fun and Done quilt:
16 inch blocks are too big. When it comes to adding borders, the bulk gets in the way. 12 inch is the biggest I will do next time.
Topstitch all the sashing.
Don't add cornerstones. The seams never quite matched up. (Remember, I am a newbie on the sewing machine.)
This was wonderful for hand quilting. Just big enough to do pretty things.
It was great NOT to have to sew on binding (my favorite part!)
