Your quilt is adorable. They'll love it.
Now, treat yourself to chocolate and wine and celebrate that it's done :)

I think it's absolutely precious, and definitely worth all the blood, sweat and tears you put into it!

He's at my house now!!

I gave the quilt to my great niece yesterday. She and her parents love it! Their joy made it all worthwhile!

I then hauled out my old Kenmore machine and started quilting the "sandwich" together. I tried to do FMQ which did not go too well. :( I also did SID which went ok, but the backing did pucker :x Finally my Kenmore fouled up looping on the bottom. This gift is to be given when we go to to FL on Wed. The quilting needs to be finished and the binding must be put on it as well...

Just sounding off....
