Default Embroidered Blocks, quilt finally done!

I finally finished this quilt. This is the quilt that my friends daughter ask me to make, (her mom was my dear friend) and she embroidered the blocks, she passed away last summer.. I really had a hard time as the blocks were all different sizes. Also I have to thank the ladies on this forum for all the help they gave me on setting the blocks on point, I have never done this before. There are some mistakes, in one part on the back I got some folds and was to far along when I realized they were there to rip them out. So I just left them..The quilt was 110x120 so it was a big quilt. I quilted it on my new Sweet Sixteen,it was my first quilt quilted on this machine.. Thanks for looking

You did a wonderful job arranging on-point those beautiful blocks made by your dear friend. That's quite an accomplishment and just beautiful too! What a wonderful, heartfelt gift that I'm sure will be greatly appreciated.
