oksewglad, your DQ to Chele is gorgeous, so much work with those tiny triangles. Scary to think I still have quite a few of those fabrics still in my stash, there were some lovely little prints around back then.

So... if you don't look at my points (that are less than perfect) or my binding, I am happy with how this turned out. I forgot to take a picture at home, so as I was getting ready to mail it, I had my son hold it on his lap while I quickly took a cell phone picture of it. It is a bit wonky in the picture. It really isn't as wavy as it looks. It is nice and square if held up right, but it was draped across his lap. Sorry. [ATTACH=CONFIG]283430[/ATTACH]

Oh thanks you guys, you make me blush. Like I told Chele, I learned alot making this. I used a poly batting-the batting of choice then, and boy it doesn't have the drape the 20/80 battings have. I used muslin because that was the "neutral" of the day. Most quilts were backed with it, too. Fabric lines are some you may find today, but selvages were narrow and not always printed on. Moda and many of my favorites today were not around yet! And guess what--this all came from my stash! LOL

Here is Misty Marie's beautiful quilt. I know she posted one from her camera phone, but hopefully this one will be a little better. If I can figure out how to do it And if I do ... isn't it a beauty? Thank you soooo much!
