Beautiful quilt and the stitching is wonderful. I'm sure the kids will be excited to present Dad with his quilt. Good job.

It is very obvious you are the much bigger person, and your kids will take notice in a very big way. You are teaching them something wonderful.

Your quilt is beautiful, by the way.

Love the colors. Did you use random stash, or a layer cake?

Wow, it is turning out so pretty. Feathers are my favorite thing on quilts.

Hey "Girlfriend" - Thanks for checking out the quilt, I used from stash, I've never purchased any layercakes, back when I got back into quilting about 10 years ago, we had a "Mill End Textiles" store here in town, I'd purchase my favorite colors knowing I'd find use for them someday - I'm so glad I did! Their yard of fabric was always much more than a yard today!

That is a beautiful quilt! And what a good person you are to make the quilt for your ex. As someone else already said, it's as much for the children as it is for him. Thank you for sharing with us!
