    That quilt is adorable. I do know how you feel. When I posted my completed bargello I could have written a book about the 'personalities' it has. I kept it down to a paragraph and hit the high spots. I love my quilt!!
    I believe each quilt sews up different, quilts different, and is unique in itself. I am glad you love your quilt. That is what this game we play is all about. Learning, loving quilting and enjoying our friends and family. She is going to treasure it.

    No quilt police here. That is a beauty! I am sure you SIL will absolutely love it and the memories the pics on it will bring to her. Great job.

    That is a wonderful quilt! Look at all the personal things that went into it, and I like the colors too. None of my quilts are ever perfect...I don't know many that are.

Each picture has a way cool story to go with it, I made it for my sister in law for Christmas, and I hope she loves it as well.
    sounds like a poem so sweet!!

    Made with love !!! How great is that!!!!

    It's a beautiful quilt filled with memories. Learning to line up your sashing comes with time and experience-ask me how I know. That is all that I can see that needs improvement and it doesn't make the quilt any less special.
