Ditto on all the comments! Love it and your Dad is so proud I bet!!

Good for you, great job quilting. You should be pleased indeed. Thank you.

Just beautiful! If I didn't know you were a beginner I would never believe it.

Wow!! Very nice :) If you've only been quilting 1 1/2 years, I can't wait to see what you do in another 1 1/2 years!

Nice quilt and very nice quilting. I'd say you are on your way to years of happy quilting.

Thanks so much to everyone for all of the gracious comments. I am so inspired by all the beautiful art that is displayed on this site. It is such a supportive community!

Great pattern and colors! Well done quilting, too. :)

Great job!!! Love the batiks!

Pretty quilt and nice quilting. Bet your Dad loves his quilt.

Great quilt. Well done. Lucky dad.
