I have about 3 weeks to do a wall quilt for my daughter's Wedding Anniversary. But you are doing well. If you don't get it completely finished, give them the top with a request to be returned so you can complete it. Love the blue and white. I might try it with lavender/white for my sister or res/white for me SIL. She could do with a pick up after losing her husband a few weeks ago. Red is her favorite color too.

Love it, love it, love it!!!! You did a great job!!! Love the colors, the design, the quilting design. Still can't fathom how you can do so much in so little time!!! I know they will treasure this for years to come! Give yourself a big pat on the back!
