You did a great job placing the fabrics -- it's a wonderful quilt!

It is a lovely quilt. Did you back the skirt material so it wouldn't stretch?

Thanks! I used a light interfacing on the back of the skirt material :)

Love it! You took an old fashioned pattern and made it look modern. Good thinking!

Very nice. And I like that you chose 2 different but similar background fabrics. Thank for sharing.

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate all the compliments. I was just happy that she was so thrilled with it. It took me at least two months to get brave enough to cut into the skirt (it was the ONLY thing she had left of her grandmother's), but then it went together very easily once I got started :)
