Thank you! I started out trying to quilt about a quarter-inch inside each of the colored triangles, but my stitches weren't very good since I was brand new at it. I decided to quilt on the white triangles instead so it wouldn't show up as much. By the time I got finished, I was much better. It's amazing how quickly we can see improvement.

LOL! I'm on it! I just ordered three charm packs from eBay yesterday. I got Moda Fruitcake because I thought it would be fun to make a Christmas quilt over the Christmas season. It'll be another way of getting into the holiday spirit.

Thank you, Peg! I'm from Wisconsin, too. (Though I live in Texas now.) If I were still living there, I would've made it a LOT warmer. ;)

it's a beautiful quilt and I like the hearts a lot. and it is quite amazing how fast you get the hang of hand quilting, it seems scary at first, but all of the sudden, it's relaxing and peaceful. and I have 2 to finish by christmas so I better stop browsing and start quilting! great job too!!

Fantastic! I love the happy "brightness" of the fabrics.
