I have never had anyone give me a quilt of any size before! This is a first for me!
I have already told her in a pm how much I love it and appreciate her for doing it but I will say it here as well! I just love it!
I have been a dog lover all my life so she doesn't know how perfect this is for me. Growing up I never met a dog I didn't like. My dad would have to get really strict with me (which he never did!) when we went to a friends house where there was a mean dog. Because I never saw a mean dog I only saw a dog who needed a friend! I am drawn to dogs like a dog is to a bone!!
My granddaughter Rachel is just like me. She kisses the dogs before she ever even sees us! She walks right by us to go to the dogs first!

I'm so glad you like it Rhonda - these are such fun to make - my fingers are itching to start another but I'm TRYING to make myself finish up a couple of other things first! I LOVE it when you've got all your little stacks of triangles and you start arranging them into the hexagons and seeing the patterns emerge - sometimes I even sqeal with delight, they're so pretty - my family think I'm nuts! :D
