Thanks!!! i think I only paid $25 for the quilt top - and it is in perfect shape!! I couldn't make anything for that price! When I was taking the blocks apart, they were all double stitched!! Who double stitches quilt blocks?!?!?! Oh well....

Wow, the blue is so much better than the green, really sets off the blocks. What a great find, enjoy!!

Isn't that funny what a difference taking off the old dark green and adding pretty blue with strips, You had an eye to make this older quilt into something special. Thanks for sharing.

I love all the new patterns with bright colors, but something in me just wants to wrap these types of quilts around me and just relax. It is a beautiful quilt and I love the blue borders, Gave it a vintage look. (that I love).

You did great. The blue is so much prettier than the green and I love the way you used the little 9 patch for the corners.
