I love your quilt. I am making my first memory quilt(rectangular) for my dad's 80th and now I think that mines boring. Wish I'd thought of circles or seen yours first!

I'm sure yours will be beautiful!! I wish my Dad were here so I could make him one. And to tell you the truth, I'm planning on doing another one... and think I will do rectangles and squares. This one was a definite challenge. Although I'm pleased with the way it turned out... *whew*... what it took out of me! :roll: He is worth it though... no doubt about that. Thank you for your kind comments.

I love the quilt. Specially how you did the borders around each picture. It gives me ideas on what to do with my gd quilt that I am going to make. She is into dancing and I have several of her dancing pictures that I am going to put on a quilt. Am sure you will get it done by the time his birthday arrives. Wil you be doing the quilting yourself?

I will not be doing the quilting myself. I have only been quilting for about a year now and the only pieces I have quilted myself have been small wall hangings and table runners. I would really like the end result to be nice, so for me, this isn't the time to practice. :oops: I challenged myself enough just getting those circles in there! :shock: I am sending it out next week. Then I just have to put the binding on. I appreciate all the kind comments. Thanks :D
