I have to say that the photography doesn't do this fabric justice. There is a lot of gold and I think I may have enough green or gold to do a small flange around the panel before I put on the first border to frame the panel even more.

That is gorgeous. I really do appreciate your kindness. I look foward to seeing it grow.
Chigger I'm glad you got it and are happy with it. I would love you to join the house swap I think it's going to be lots of fun. I posted pic and links to pic for inspiration.

I realize I am giving a play by play...lol...but fabric has been washed and will be prepared and assembled, hopefully today, and I plan to have it in the mail to sistahdebbra on Monday. I'll send it Priority mail so you should have it no later than next Thursday. I love this....it is going to be so pretty! I am truly sorry that you didn't get your original top but I hope this one will turn out to be a close second for you, Crafty. You did such beautiful embroidery on my top and everyone elses that I just felt you deserved something special for your effort. I have such a collection of Geisha's and I'm glad I chose these fabrics for yours! Enjoy!

I will love it and everytime I look at it ,it will remind me of the new friends I made. Thank you.

Oh goody, I can't wait. And yes, Crafty, you did beautiful work on my quilt too! I love it and what you did for the others.

It is in the mail to you Sistahdebbra!
 

I sent it Priority Mail so you will have it quickly! Hope you like it!:)
