Thanks to all for the great compliments. The queen size pattern called for 12 different fat quarters and my DD shopped in my stash for all twelve. I also had the border and the "shadow" fabrics, but she had to purchase some Kona Ivory for the background. The most difficult part of the pattern was making sure the 12 different fabrics were well spaced.

Next on my schedule is completing the Nutcracker Quilt I've been making for my DGD for months. I still have three more Nutcrackers to applique, then I can put all 12 together with sashing and start on the 26 9-inch blocks that are the second border. The quilt was supposed to be her Christmas present, but now it just might be ready for her July 1 birthday. Photos can be found under the thread "Nutcracker Quilt" in Pictures, if anyone wants to take a look. Belles
