Oh is that beautiful. I had to look at it for quite awhile. I enjoyed seeing what was done for each month.

Great quilt and I like your idea about hanging up each month's blocks so that you could be inspired to finish the quilt, as well as working on other UFO's.

Aren't you glad you finished that gorgeous thing? It must have really put a grin on your face to see those pretty blocks come together. Kudos

I have a couple McKenna Ryan applique quilts to do and am not sure which direction to go.

I used fusible ( heat n bond lite) then blanket stitched each piece with Superior threads invisible thread on top, light gray thread in the bobbin. Longarm quilted with cream on top, light blue in bobbin.
