I had to smile when I read your post....I, too, gave blood, sweat, and tears to a rail fence quilt several years ago. I just couldn't seem to keep it all straight....which way to turn each block :oops: But, like you, I finally finished the quilt top. And loved the results...and I, like you, became even more addicted to quilting then I already was.

:D :D

Beautiful quilt....love your color choices :thumbup:
