Thank you everyone for the compliments. She truly loved it. I'm so proud of her. She starts work today as a social worker for the state she lives in. The city she interned in made room for her as they didn't want to lose her to another. Miss M has been accepted into the master's program, so I see another quilt in her future. The color choice reasons are in the link.
Now to work on the Irish Chain for the challenge. That one will be for me - my first. Also FMQ a king size on my other machine - another first. Yesterday, the stitching wasn't good. I changed the needle and will try again.
