    Well I am finally finished piecing this quilt for our bedroom. I tossed it on the bed to show my wife and to see if my measurements were where they needed to be. :lol: :lol:

    Thanks to Darci, AKA "Hoolahoop1" I had the final piece of the puzzle to finish it up!!! Darci the fabric fits perfectly and if you try to look for it only then can you find it!

    Now comes the fun part...........quilting!!! This is a King size quilt that measures 110"x 118" and it will all be done on my Universal 15 treadle in my studio. But I have to figure out what I want to do and how to do it. Also I am thinking about scalloping the edges on three sides just to be fancy.

    So if my calculations are right when I wash it it will shrink up to where the borders will be even with the edge of the mattress and fit up just right!!
