    Working on a Christmas present for my sister inlaw wanted a Wizard of Oz quilt. I just finished the top. Not sure what I will use for the backing. I am trying not to buy more material...I do wish I had the Yellow brick road and the wizard...Oh well...I will figure out something.

    The blue is the same as the dress..this picture does not show it.

    You have somebody in your family that loves the WOO too! My niece has a big collection of WOO stuff. Each year she puts up a Christmas tree that is just Wizard of Oz. I'm hoping to get a tree skirt made for her for this Christmas.

    Love the quilt.

    Great quilt. I don't know if you noticed, or perhaps you planned it this way, but the tumber blocks with the words are all right side up with the exception of the one on the bottom left. If you wanted to turn it around, you could still do so now. Don't mean to sound critical, didn't mean to. Hope this was helpful.
