Just finished this. Will put it away till next Christmas. The quilt police would cringe at the mitered corners, but I won't be inviting any for Christmas dinner.

That is gorgeous. I never invite the quilt police to my house either. They would have a field day. LOL

Very nice :!:

IDquilter 01-15-2011 07:45 PM

love the colors, looks real nice to me, if the quilt police are going to be looking that close, hopefully a needle pokes them in the eye.

tuesy 01-15-2011 08:08 PM

I think it's perfect!! Great job!!
