Beautiful quilt! Congratulations on being the Quilt of the Week. Definite winner.
I gifted this book a few Christmases ago to a quilting relative. I was hoping she would use/browse and then lend it to me. I may just have to ask to borrow.

Beautiful quilt and love how you kept the green theme. You did such a wonderful job on the blocks and 53 is a lot of blocks. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous quilt with us.

I don't care for FW quilts so I guess that's how I missed this the first time; but, I missed a beautiful quilt. I especially like the layout and color and quilting. Really just everything about it. Well done!

Gorgeous! Green is my favorite color and with a white background it just sings out to me.
