Love the quilt and the hill country! I am a native Texan and love the BlueBonnets and the Indian Blankets.

Just to let you know. I'm a hand quilter also. My very 1st quilt, I did was a king size water bed quilt, and I sewed it,// hand quilted it in the first year. My 1st quilt show was the following year. I still have the quilt, with worn out fabric, and so on. I'm hand quilting a grdmothers flower garden, a lady friend gave me. She hand sewed every peice by hand. I'm 98% of haveing it done. Roughly guessing 2500-3000 peices in this quilt. 1 more quick note, I get in my chair of a evening, and my 3 dog's are in the chair with me. And they dont move until I move. I get stiff, after so of time sitting. I'm hooked on hand quilting. The needle I use is a quilting/between, size 11. Don-isewman
