Let us know what your quilt brings. That is intereesting! No matter what it brings it is still priceless and the feeling you have from doing it is priceless also. I love hearing how people donate their works of arts.

Ok, now I'm having the problem of quilting it.
I started to machine quilt it....don't like how it comes out.
I tried hand quilting it....don't like that either.
So, my idea now is to machine embroider little hearts all over it.
OR
Tie it.
I didn't like the machine quilt because I didn't like the white thread showing thru on the red fabric. I know, I could have changed to red, but that's just too much of a bother for me. I'm not that good at machine quilting. I just do the basic.
I could have done red with the hand stitching, which I did, but didn't like it.
So, what do you think???

Oh, I am SO THERE! Sounds like paradise! I stink at quilting, but maybe I could cook or clean to earn my keep? Then I'd watch you finish that beauty off. We could make some other tops too! Wonder how much fabric I can pack?
