April, this is gorgeous! You'll love hand quilting!! It's so relaxing to me. I'm almost at the point of "rocking the needle." haha. More practice will do it. You'll have fun! Be sure and post pics when you're finished!! :D :D

Okay.. that is just cool. really cool!
What a nice break from the windows I usually see with the same fabric just shifted slightly but you can still see a definite repeat in it.

Don't let my oldest son see it - he will want it!
You did an awesome job on it! Just love it!

The depth of your windows is really incredible.
Nice work!

Thank you everyone. I just loved the effect that this window setting had in it (a little different than the normal attic windows) and the fabric line is just amazing. I have always loved the landscape fabrics and collect them whenever I see them. I want to do another one but in a winter scene :-)
Thank you all again for your wonderful compliments and words of encouragement.
Happy Valentine's Day :-)
Hugs
April

Deb thanks so much-you can make your son one as he would have a hard time getting this one away from hubby lol :-)
Here is a link to the pattern with an alternate setting than the one I used:
