That song "Come On a My House" sung by Jose' Ferrers wife, Rosemary Clooney. I remember that well. I will age myself, the first time i heard her singing that song, I thought it was so "risque". Seriously i thought her very brave for singing that one!

I never would have thought that all these different fabrics would blend together so perfectly! How you arranged the blocks really made the quilt interesting to me. Well done!

Perfect as a house warming gift. Just makes me want to cuddle up in front of a fireplace. Of course, I don't have a fireplace but you get the picture.

You're making somebody very happy, and I like the way you quilted it, too. It's a lovely gift.

I was quite nervous about making such a drastic color change compared to the original pattern which is very scrappy and beautiful. In the end, i was very happy with how it turned out.
