Oh, Wendy, it is beautiful!!! Several important things pop out to me... 1. You jumped in and did one. 2. You made mistakes (that probably only you see). 3. That you finished it. 4. It looks wonderful. 5. You preserved some heirlooms.
Your quilt will be treasured. WendyAz took Cindy Needham's class. She is one of my favorite teachers. She offers 2 classes on Craftsy. I admire you for jumping in and finishing your quilt.
