I cost me a couple hundred rands, which is nothing if i think how much the fabric cost me and my time to have finished it. I had already done all the blocks and a couple of the long row, but when the triangles did not match, i gave up :oops: . I was extremely excited when she saw the quilt sections and said, "No problems, they can finish it" It was A HUGE RELIEF :-P

We have a saying here that the quilt will look just fine from a galloping horse! Well, I slowed my pony to a walk and your quilt looks great. So happy you got it finished and are able to enjoy it. It is truly beautiful.
