3. If you have something on your computer, you don't have to photograph it. Just save it as a .jpg or .bmp file and upload that.

4. Um, wait, is that design meant to be the whole quilt or one block? Because it has a thousand pieces in it, so if it's one block it'll take you forever to do.

It is the whole quilt. I'm crazy but not that crazy! Lol

No, I don't have any quilting design program. I did that on Microsoft Excel 2007.

Holy s--- on Excel!!?
Showed it to DH, he likes it alot
I have done small blocks on excel but a whole quilt??
YOU ARE GOOD! I would love to make that quilt, I need more time in the day (or alot less time here) :)

And .... no, DH isn't thrilled with the design. Says he'll think about it and do some other 'net research to find what he likes. :(
When the right design comes along for him we will both know and it will be awesome.
I really like it and may do a wall hanging of it and sell it. That would put the squares at 1 1/2 inches, but...

Surely, DH will love this design as it's an original done by you especially for him! Bold design and colors, so southwest, what else could he want?

I love your design.. only change I might make would be to add some really dark navy blue. would take a while to decide where.. but I like the Southwest designs with lots of navy, peach, rust and tan.. as the primary colors.
