    Incredible quilt. How tedious it must have been to get the plaid fabric center cut and pieced so accurately. Great job all around.

    What a great deal of thought and planning you put into this quilt. It's a treasure.

    Land thank you all for the kind words. I'd be honoured if it ended up in a museum. That'd be wow!
    I have the blue/green one. Guess that is the casual one.

    lol I've never heard of a tartan being referred to as casual. I'd have to look it up to find out which version it is other than the most popular.

    I'm in Australia at the moment without access to my laptop. I can try and find this out for you once I'm back in Scotland.

    words cannot exress the beauty, the talent, the love that you have put into this project. this is not just a quilt but a work of art. this belongs in a museum for every one to share. I someday hope to have the talent to do work like yours. Rachelle
