    That is so cool with the fussy cut centers. I have fabric from way back in 85

    I love some those older fabrics from the early 80's . Still have some and work with them periodically. Pretty soon they will be reproducing them calling them "vintage". Your quilt has such warm colors .. its irresistable.

    Oh, what a gorgeous quilt! I don't remember this fabric from back in the day (yeah, I was around & kicking back when Fred & Wilma Flintstone were dating... LOL!) but I sure do love it! I just love this quilt period! Great job!

    Me too! I started so late, I have to hurry to make a quilt for each family member before I go out the door feet first!

    Great quilt! I love your topiary trees that you appliqued along the edge. They really set off the fussy cut Log Cabin blocks. Now every one will be looking for that fabric.

    Lots of luck trying to find this fabric after 30 years. I did make a mistake, it was made by Peter Pan instead of Concord. This was pillow fabric with matching coord. Still have some of the pillow top print left 2or 3 yards. Any suggestions?[ATTACH=CONFIG]352956[/ATTACH]
