Someone also asked how many 1/2 square triangles were in the quilt and 1200 seems to ring a bell
I used a collection of fabric from Connecting Threads called Shimmering Frost - there wasn't a big selection when I went to get extra fabrics for the pillowcases and I ordered the 108 inches used for backing. I didn't use the CT fabric but found a great Robert Kaufman at $ 2.49 a yard in the flat fold section - in Anaheim at M & L's.
Thanks for all the compliments!

I think yours is even more breath taking than the one in the book!
