    Default Braids and Bars
    It's done! It's done! It's done!!!!! I worked on hand quilting it for 14 months (on and off). It is a large twin size. And it's for me! I call it braids and bars. Nothing fancy...just quilted in the ditch.

    I said the same words after I quilted by DH quilt, only I worked on his 3 yrs... and now I find myself dragging my feet on working on one for DS & wife.But if I leave it up on the frame, it will get done, as I have more to hand quilt. Good work

    It's a beauty, and I love the solid color strips you put between the sections.
