Finished quilt for DIL -- 2 years in progress
 

She asked me for what she called a "granny quilt." One with lots and lots of colors and different fabrics. I worked on it off and on for over 2 years. Made from 2" squares. Back is flannel. I did QAYG since it is too big to handle on my machine. Quilt is approx 84" x 96. And colors are more vibrant than they appear. I really didn't think I would like it, but I do. Gonna be hard to give it away.

Very pretty! I can see why you discovered you liked it!

OMG gorgeous colors, workmanship and QAYG. She will love it.

Very pretty! And the best gifts are ones will almost hate to give away. You did great!

WOW! I can see why you hate to give it up! She will love it!!!!

Love it. Reminds me of a quilt my Granny would have made.

Oh my gosh......that is so beautiful! Wonderful quilt.

Both sides are great! I love the colors of the back side, so she can go with the granny style or contemporary. I can see why you would want to do QAG with the size of it!

I believe you have exceeded her expectations! This is simply gorgeous. Scrappy quilts surprise us, I think. I don't always like them while in the process, but they turn out amazing. You have succeeded in creating a wonderful heirloom. Thank you for sharing.

I am pretty sure this is the most beautiful scrap quilt I have ever seen! I can sure understand why you will miss having it around!
