It's DONE!!! It's DONE!!! It's DONE!!!

I'm quite pleased with the end result. I ended up backing the quilt with a cotton sheet. Someone suggested snuggly flannel, but between living in Arkansas and moving to Florida, he wanted a something more lightweight.

There are a few "lessons" that I have learned from this project. The first and most important is to measure 8,000 times, cut one time. That I think was my biggest problem with this quilt. I also have to learn to slow down a little bit, because rushing causes mistakes. There's a doozie with the binding, but it adds charachter... :roll: ! And finally, and most important, is to keep working and keep quilting. I'm pretty much self-taught and this is only my second blanket. I can only improve!!! I can't wait to start my next project.

Thank you all again for the encouragement and compliments.
