Hi Leah: The quilt shows me what a strong, determined woman you are. And the blocks you made for me in February certainly shows what an excellent quilter you have become! Your perseverance paid off in the long run! Stay strong....JoAnn

Omg, I found this quilt, she LOVED IT, so I guess that is all that really matters. Looking at it the points do not match, clearly, LOL, it came apart a lot, so I hand stitched, I never quilter it, I had no idea how to so I tacked it with thread. All I can do is laugh, my new baby will have a little different. And I have now made some really nice quilts for my daughter, I just cannot believe how bad this one is. Lmbo. Hope you all get a kick out of it!!!
