The quilt is cute, and colorful ..
I read your instructions, and by golly! You did a lot of work, but because you were basically working "production" style, you were probably seeing a quicker completion than working on each block, etc.
I made crocheted bears like the one you made ... a long time ago ... my forty + year old daughter is still hauling it around! They are just the right size for little hands to hold and cuddle.
Good job!
