    And thanks to everyone for your kind comments. I seldom go strickly by the pattern...well,.. come to think about it I think I've only followed a pattern from start to finish, once or twice. But at least it makes my quilts unique. And for those that don't...give it a try...I went to a class once and the instructor focused on that very thing. She suggested things like adding sashing between blocks if it wasn't in the pattern or even leaving out sashing if it is in the pattern, add a border, take away a border. You can do so many little things to change it up to make it your own. Try it,...it's fun.

    I ABSOLUTELY love it! You should send a photo into the people who made this pattern! seriously! I never can stick to a pattern either! I love getting ideas from them, but always want to "make it my own". What a wonderful heirloom you have.
