I really do appreciate all your wonderful comments. I'm new to quilting and this is the first king quilt I have made for anyone. I have made smaller quilts such as throw and crib size, all this year. I'm glad I found out about the Quilting Board. It feels really good to feel like I'm good at something. I know you can't tell from the picture but I am 100% disabled. I have hip dysplasia (a birth defect I didn't find out about until 1997), Fibromyalgia,nerve damage in my neck and lower back, just to name a few. I'm in devastating pain most of the time and can barely walk. That's one reason I'm so proud of this quilt because I did it all on my every day machine. I can't afford a longarm, they are just to expensive. Thank you again. It was what I needed to hear.
Sounds like despite a lot of problems that might have stopped many people, you haven't let it stop you from being a very creative, productive person. You definitely have talent, never doubt that! :thumbup:
You are a sweetheart. Thank you so much. I have to stay busy. If I don't, then the pain takes over. There are some days I push myself so much that when I take my last ton of meds for the day, I'm out cold within minutes. Sometimes that's the only way I can get any sleep. I love to create and make things using different mediums. If you are interested in seeing what else I dabble in, check out my two websites. (No, I'm not soliciting) http://www.bluedesertroses.artfire.com and http://www.majesticcrystalrose.artfire.com
One is for my sewn items and the other is for my jewelry and other stuff.

Thank you. I guess you checked out my websites. I don't have nearly everything listed. I try to do several craft shows every year. I'm done now until Spring so after the holidays, I will add new things.

Thank you BizzieLizzie. That one sold the last craft show I did. Now I have to make another one to replace it. I have several others to add after the holidays.
