Just wanted to say thanks for all the help and advice. I haven't been around as I have been very busy quilting. I wanted to share some pics to show you my progress. All the piecing and quilting has been done by hand.

This is a wall hanging for my parents 40th wedding anniversary.

You did a wonderful job. They will LOVE IT!
