Good morning! I was able to spend a couple of hours in my studio last night and finished the Marilyn Monroe quilt top! I will trim up the borders once she's quilted. I posted her a week or so ago as I was working on her and was asked about the pattern. I tweaked a pattern called Thimble Pleasures by Quilting Treasures. I got the pattern in a kit I purchased. To tweak it for MM I had to add black to the MM pics to make them all the same size. The alternating blocks in the pattern called for smaller inner fabric and a white border. I wanted to make the shoe fabric bigger so left off the white inner border and I added my own borders. Here she is in all her glory:

As I said before, you did an excellent job with the selection of your fabric to make this quilt. The person that will receive this quilt will just adore it.
