Default Finished at 4 a.m., just in the nick of time!

Made a quilt for my school's big fund raiser-only item live auctioned,-no pressure there! Finished at 4 .m. the day of the event. -Let's just say it was a llloooonnnggg school day! Got the panel and 2 other Dr Suess fabrics + a couple of others from Nancy's Notions, pulled the others from my stash, made up my own pattern, 2nd time I've embroidered on my BL Unity-learned several new things! Couldn’t have completed the embroidery without the stellar advice and guidance from staff members at Keep Me In Stitches- Largo, Fl! Quilt sold for $400, glad for first time a quilt was auctioned at the fundraiser. It celebrates the 25th anniversary of Suess' "Oh the Places You'll Go" book. Thanks for looking!

Very nice quilt. Glad to hear it was a great success at the raffle. The first quilt I ever donated for a raffle raised over 500.00. I could never sell one for that much, but was glad to hear the organization I gave it to made a lot from it. It makes you feel so good when something you made brings in a lot of money for a special group
