Wanted to share the final results of a quilt I made for my daughter who graduated this year from HS. She had a great 4 seasons of field hockey and will go on to play in college. The design was in my head but really came together as I made the top. My original plan is not even close to what the final was! I machine quilted with stitch in the ditch for the blocks and stippled/echo on the pictures to highlight the detail. Hope you enjoy! Now, on to the next project!

Great Job ! Isn't amazing how in our mind we picture it looking one way, but as we start sewing and putting it together it comes out different , but just as WONDERFUL :lol:

Thanks for the feedback everyone. She really does love it and was surprised at how many pictures from the newspaper I put in. I printed all of them on "printed Treasures" and found that the price was well worth it! The colors are a reflection of her school colors, orange, brown and white. I pulled in yellows and other tones from my scraps.
