That is a wonderful quilt. You picked out my favorite pattern and used my favorite colors. Perfect. The quilting is awesome too.

SSOOOOOOOOOO pretty! Fresh and crisp. And it only took 3 months? You must have a pile of dirty dishes and cob webs in the corners! I love it!

That is a fine example of why I just love traditional quilts! It will be an heirloom for sure - and I think 3 months is no time at all!!! :D

Very nice! Love, love, love and the handquilting is superb!
Did you quilt it on a frame or hoop?
It sure would have take me much, much longer.

Thanks for the compliments. I have a PVC frame that I do my hand quilting on and for big quilts like this one I do it in sections so I'm not wrestling a big quilt. I worked on it every night and my fingers were mighty sore by the time it was done. I'm doing another one now but it's a large throw.
