I also don't have a real stash yet, either and can't figure out how to go about that, either! Lots of learning to do with this hobby/addiction but learning better from this forum than any books I've read yet! So, again, thanks and I will be picking everybody's brain for a long while yet!

Thanks, I'd like to give it a try too. I just buy what fabric I need at the time and buy a little extra. That's how I built my stash.

It is perfect. I love it and your grandson will, too.

Beautiful! I've never seen one of these, and yours looks great! Your grandson should love it.

Thanks SO much for all the compliments, you have all inspired me to keep on trying, they all seem so imperfect to me. Now, if I would just quit spending ALL my time reading this great source of info (am digging back, this is quite the forum)maybe I would get some quilting done!

Hey you did good. I really like it. I've been wanting to make it myself :D

I think it's wonderful! My mother is a puzzle junkie. Thanks for showing!

WOW-ZERS!! How great is THAT? I have 2 little grandsons.... hummmm ! UH OH! another quilt to add to my "TO DO" list. It is beautiful and you did a GREAT job!

What a great quilt for a boy!! You did a wonderful job and without a pattern?!?! You're much braver than I am!.
I showed your quilt to my son and he wants one now, so I ordered the pattern from equilt.com and the puzzle fabric. Thank you for the inspiration!!
