It is a beautiful quilt, love the soft blue fabrics. Congratulations on finishing it - I know how painful RA can be, I have it myself. Keep up the good work.

Oh my word!!!! did you start this in a class???? I have one just like this (still not finished either) that I started in a class. I was living in North Kansas City at the time. Back in 1985-87. Mine was rust colored and is completely hand sewn and quilted. Now I'll just HAVE to finish it!
