Oh Cathy my mum knows ALL about my friends here on the board...I NEVER shut up talking about you all - but I will make sure she knows about the hugs is sent over from you all too...... :D :D :D

Izy, the borders are great and your Mum will love it.

It turned out spectacular! LOVE IT!

Oh, that's a beautiful quilt. I LOVE LOVE LOVE those colors! What collection is it?? (I recognize some of the fabrics.) Beautifully done.

It sure turned out beautiful!! Such soft colors! Congrats :) :)

All the fabrics are Moda Simplicity range...except the lime green border, all these fabrics were donated by Cathy M as part of a massive fabric donation to Spain...heres a link if you want to see how very generous all our friends here have been!!

Izy, that's really pretty! I like the soft colors.

I love it! I was planning on making the same pattern with that collection but the charms I ordered got lost in the mail : (

I can't wait to see the finished quilt. What backing are you going to use?

Thanks for your compliments everyone...I will use the remainder of the border fabrics with a soft pink binding, then I am going to quilt it around all the larger squares in the ditch I think :D

such a lovely quilt..the way you put all the fabrics together just makes it!

I spent quite abit of time sorting all the fabrics into colours, density of patterns etc. then arranged each nine patch with five stronger denser patterned squares and four lighter squares...the biggest challenge was arranging the finished blocks to make sure the same fabrics didn't end up together, I think there are only two touching...thank god for a big piece of flannel pinned to the wall. saved my back I can tell you, swap, oh no...clash...swap this one for that one....duh!!!! :oops: :roll: :lol:

Your quilt turned so soft and delicate looking. Your Mum is going to love it. P.S. Your surprise will be coming in 6 to 8 weeks. Jan

Glad you like it Janstar....I am so please with this quilt...this is only technically the 2nd quilt I have made (as my first quilt is a WIP :oops: ) and I love it, it is so girly..... :roll:


oooohhhhh I can't wait.......... :D :D :D :D :D
