It's wonderful! You did an excellent job putting them all together. I too really like how you used the license plates!

Great job, I've enjoyed watching you build your rows and now the finale. Hope you can find a shop to turn it in for a prize. If you are traveling you could carry it with you and ask at each shop you come to; if your local shops already have winners.

Yippee, love to see these put together. Nice quilt. Congrats on the finish. Hoping you win. Will pm you for the chick row. I turned mine in on June 27 at the LQS. The fat quarters are wonderful. Have picked out a quilt for mine already. Just need some time to do it. LOL

The applique rows were the easiest ones! Just get a good fusible backing like Pellon EZFuse, which is a no sew... (tho I sew it). Iron your appliques where you want them in about two seconds, and then when you quilt, sew just inside the raw edge with small stitches. That's it. Forget the zig-zags and the blanket stitches of the past, and HEAVEN FORBID the needleturned and hand stitched edges! Just stitch along that raw edge, close to it. The fusible and the stitching holds it securely. And it doesn't take long.

I took this quilt in today and WON! Yay... Still want to keep making rows, tho. What's wrong with me? I'd like to do some from last year-- the water theme. Does anyone have patterns from last year they would share?
