Here is the finished product of our planning and scheming awhile back. I think it turned out wonderfully! DH really likes it! What 'cha think?

I pieced the back with blue in the center surrounded by red.

I put laurel leaf "crowns" around the seals to highlight them.

FABULOUS job!!

Thank you all for your wonderful comments! You all make me feel all warm and loved. Thanks again to jstitch and moonpi for helping me figger out what to do with the borders. This was the first time I've done a quilt without an overall pattern or kit.

BTW, the block design for those interested is "No place like home". Seems appropriate in these times doesn't it? I thought it was kind of cool how it seemed to fit the theme of the quilt.


Bevanger 11-08-2008 07:16 AM

That is SO way cool........ I can see why your DD loves it....... :D

mamatobugboo 11-08-2008 07:38 AM
