I love the pattern and the colors. Maybe it can replace something that has been hanging for a good while.

Maybe this idea will expand your possible hanging spaces. I have 3 windows in my house that are not used for light or views. They make great quilt hang-up/display areas for my "lap" quilts--ones that are 50 x 60 approximate size. One of the windows looks out onto my neighbor's garbarge cans --I'd rather look at quilts. Another is in the living room--it used to be an outside window but now looks out into the garage/shop (always messy) area. For years I've kept it covered with curtains but now it boasts a quilt. Love having another hanging spot! And one is by the TV and needs to be shaded to keep from interferring with the picture on the tube.

Neat! The sewing machines are a great idea! Do you have a pattern for the machine-? :)

I would feel the same way I wouldn't want to let it go either . Display it in your home where you can just look at it anytime and know what wonderful work you did. Is the pattern yours I would love to try and do one similar to this. Very Pretty.

Everything is beautiful on this quilt and I can sooooo see why you can't get rid of it. I especially love your corner stones, and the borders....may I use in a future quilt?

You'll find a place for it...even if it's on the back of your sofa or a chair...finish it and the "wall" will come...lol...It's very nice.
