I love it! It reminds me of a Turkish carpet. Beautiful.

It's beautiful. But it sure looks like a lot of work but definitely worth it.

Becky - I am with you in the fascination of all the OBW's. Yours is super beautiful. The borders really finish it off. I am also waiting to see the original fabric.

May I ask how you had it quilted....was it an overall stipple or what? I have a OBW top finished but am at a loss to know what to tell the quilter on how I want it quilted. Mine turned out great, but would love some advice on what to do on quilting with this type quilt. Thanks....quilters in my area haven't seen one like this before. Will have fun showing it to my quilt guild when I have it finished.
