OMG its awesome. Mine is about 1/4 done and I am doing it in between other quilts. It looks so beautiful. Congrats. I cut out an extra one when I was cutting mine, so I will have another one all ready to start sewing when the first one is done. Give one away and keep the second. :)

Ha ha ha! I am glad you would want it. Actually my favorite cousin thats more like a sister to me also likes it so I may give it to her. I make sure I give my handwork to a person I know will take care of it too. I have given stuff that took me a year to make that got messed up with no care. That didn't teach me though, I went and made them another one. The last one I might add. :)
