I love your quilt and your story.

Very bright and cheery! Love the fabric and the pattern. How awesome to finally get her done with your own frame. I'll bet you snuggle contently with your old friend.

I just saw this thread and pictures. HazelJane, I am so jealous! :lol: You did a beautiful job on your quilt and it is so *antiquey* looking :thumbup: (Big compliment!) I would love to see it in person some day. I would like to have the Juki w/frame myself even tho I don't think I'm advanced enough to tackle it. (Actually I want the Babylock Jewel but somehow don't think it's ever gonna happen! :lol: :lol: )

Wow! Great Christmas present to yourself. I love the 30's repros. I have a very large collection of 30's repros and have started collecting Civil War repros also. You should be very proud of your quilt, you did an awesome job on it.

Melinda- come by anytime and see it and play with the frame. I can't afford the Jewel either, and I chose the Juki over the Babylock Quilter whatever-it-is. The joy of a frame is you feel much more advanced. My FMQ without a frame is pathetic.

I love your quilt. You mentioned that you don't think it's big enough. You could put a dust ruffle on your bed - then you would have full coverage of the mattress ~ and it would fit the '30s theme.

Hazel Jane, looks like you may have started a new trend here, with those who are not as lucky as some of us who share holidays with family and must be alone during that time. Great idea you had doing something for yourself.

Hazel Jane, I would love to come by and visit. One day when I can get out for a while, I'll give you a holler!

What is the size of the squares in the four patch units?
