Very nice!! And yes it is a keeper ... :)

I like it too! So many details to look at.

It is gorgeous! No wonder your DH wants to keep it!

Love it! I can see why your husband would want to keep it.

Very, very lovely

I can see why your DH wants to keep it (smile). This is gorgeous and will be even more so once quilted. Perhaps two of these will have to be made. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Very pretty!!

It's very nice. Did your cousin give you the fabrics to make this, or did you select them? The cardinal is the state bird of Illinois so I'm wondering ... does she live here?
