Default 6-7 years later??

I started this quilt for my Granddaughter Rayna Skye about 6-7 years ago, she was about 7-8? Any way she will be 15 on Christmas eve, and I kept telling her for Christmas this year for sure, well still not done. I finally finished her top but I told her it may be another 5 years before it gets quilted?? She still loves it.

This is such a neat quilt! But what is the problem with quilting it? Do you do your own quilting? Long arm or domestic machine? I just wish she could have it

Looks like it will be a great graduation quilt! This is one of my favorite patterns. Love your fabric choices.

I can't quilt my own quilts, right now just don't have the funds to do it, hubby goes back to work Monday, after being out of work since Oct. Had surgery on both hands and he'll be 73 this year. I love him so, our Granddaughter lives with us.

Thanks so much everyone, I know she love's it so much, hounded me till I finally finished it for her. She said she didn't even care if I quilted it, just stick a back on it Grandma.

This may be a good time to have a professional do the quilting, so your DGD has her quilt and you have this jewel off your mind.
