This is an old one I've had finished for a long time... I've lost it in my sewing room a few times and finally found it again and mailed it off to person I made it for. We worked in an office where we had to jump from desk to desk so I made it for my supervisor to show her her motely crew!!! She loves the darker fabrics and I just had to show her bright and bold work nicely together...lol She loves it and will hang it in her office...

I did alot of the hand stitching "on the job" when there was "nothing to do"....I'm sure you know what I mean....

Very pretty! I'm a new quilter and my very first quilt was an attic windows, but not as elaborate as yours!

Are the frogs appliqued on the square? They seem 3-D

I was also wondering how you got the frogs to look 3-D? :thumbup:

Thank you - this was my favorite pattern for a while and didn't want to do anything else but I finally moved on -- I still like the looks of the attic window though and your quilt is just as pretty...good job..

No they aren't -- that was just the material and they got the poof look from the stitching - when I came to the frogs I'd skip over them and pick back up on the other side of the line I was working.. I probably should have stuffed them....
