What a stunning quilt. You have one big treasure that's for sure, and the memories of working on it those couple of special times a years are priceless. I love the fabrics. Fall colors are so warm and inviting. The last photo of the scarecrow block just makes me smile!! Wish the fabric was still around. It would be one I would have to have!

That is awesome! I have a ton of soft sculpture panels from an estate sale -- maybe I can use them after all!

That is absolutely beautiful! I hope you can find a matching fabric to bind it with. Very good job!

Just lovely. What a great idea to use up material from vests that most likely would never be made anyway. Good thing you and DH remained married with the years to complete this. :-)

Love those colors. I love the look of fussy cut quilts.
