Gorgeous Karla. Are you giving it to your daughter?
Yes. I have too many quilts here now (four I've kept and Mark's CW quilt, plus three are at the quilters!) and a soft wonderful afghan Rachel made for me. But, I didn't want to sell this one because of the story. I always ask the kids if they like a top--and Rachel has said before she likes the quilts, but she wants her second ragged flannel more. (That is going under construction soon!) Justin is 22 and has another year of college, and having more quilts (he has three) doesn't seem to be something he thinks about. :lol: His girl would love to have some quilts, and I'm making her a ragged flannel for Christmas (both girls selected colors), but I'm not ready to give her more until the relationship is formal--as in legal. :wink: They've been a couple for 2.5 years, and I love her, but.... one never knows. I've made her two nice wall hangings though.

ANYWAY--Rachel said she loves this top, but wouldn't want the quilt at college on the back of her couch--afraid something would happen to it, but she really loves it. So, I told her I'd get it quilted and save it for when she's ready. She's been kayaking with us, so understands the quilt's story. :D

That was a long answer to a simple question. :roll:
