    superb quilting... and love, love the backing. What a wonderful Irish Chain quilt and great use of scraps (so to speak).
    I'm sure your raffle donation will be greatly appreciated.

    Beautiful creation! It is attractive in every way. It is a quilt that will have very broad appeal and I hope it will raise lots of money for your project. I really like your quilting motifs.

    There are so many elements I love about your quilt. I love that they light square in your 9 patches are different from your white alternating blocks. From a distance this isn't evident, but up close, it's a little surprise. The french braids in the borders are brilliant. They keep your eye moving and give the quilt energy. And your quilting- Wow! I love that you've divided up the border and used several quilting motifs in there. It gives it a truly modern flair. Your circular feathers in the large blocks are mimicked in the swirls in the border and are very pleasing to the eye. Great quilt. Hope it makes lots of money for your group.

    Very pretty, should bring big bucks. The back looks very pretty and makes a two sided quilt.

    I really like the back. I try to do something to every backing. But, I had not thought of putting the 9 patches askew! Great idea! Really gives it a little extra something. (My only 'complaint' about this blog is that I always leave with way too many new ideas for things I want to try!!!!! - thanks, I think!).
