Thanks so much to all who have followed my progress and offered words of encouragement - I don't think I would have kept going without cha! Here is the finished product, ready for DH to take his nap. I've learned so much doing this one, it's gonna be hard to remember it all. The final touch is Sulky Blendables 30 wt thread; I used the Primaries color (#4106) to do the loops in the green borders. I got so excited to take my pictures I didn't even smooth out the bed from the Boyz getting up on it :oops:

I should quilt the runners I have done while the machine is set up, but I think I'll have a Dr. Pepper and rest my muscles first :lol:

Beautiful quilt. The quilting looks wonderful. I'm still just quilting in the ditch. Not brave enought to try free motion yet. :-)
