You must be pulling my leg... You made this in three weeks?.???!!! The quilt is gorgeous. I love the cross stitching.
You need to be proud of your workmanship. The quilt is beautiful!

I can't say enough! This is an absolutely beautiful quilt. I'm working on a quilt top that my 88-year-old aunt embroidered (state flower blocks) -- the top is together, I'm working on the back (embroidering a label by hand ); then I'm going to send it to my cousin in Cleo Spring to quilt it. Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous!

Exquisite and so delicately quilted too; I'm sure your granddaughter will treasure it and feel the love in every stitch from both her grandmothers. Well done Jingle.

Jingle, very nicely done. Love the quilting around the cross-stitch.

Great collaboration! An heirloom of the future for sure.

Thank you everyone for all the nice comments.
I was not working when I put this quilt together and quilted it. I worked on it about eight hours most days. It took about 3 weeks to do. Not a leg puller.
