    Oh my word, it's a bit dizzying. But, it would keep me coming back over and over to see all the different fabrics. Dear hubby gets a huge pat on the back for this masterpiece. Look forward to see what you decide about for the quilting. (Not experienced enough to add an opinion about that.)

    me too. He has way more patience than I do. I started one once upon a time. It is in my closet in a shoe box. It will probably stay there too. He has made at least 4 of these. Now, I just have to quilt them.

    I think it is beautiful I couldn't do that if I wanted too. He has the patience of Jobe . Know matter how you quilt it it will be beautiful.

    Wow you got alot of comments on this May i say to the man of the casa he did an outstanding job and that is 7,138 times more patience than i have to put all those bitty pieces together but now i will have to send him some just cuz <3 after reading all the replies, i think i like the thought of the clamshell for quilting. you say you have 4 of them; so do one clamshell, one popcorn, etc. baptist fan might be a bit too tight to be cozy. it sure is pretty and one of these days i hope to see his quilts in person. the only other fella who has him beat is the gentleman who used his as therapy for his stroke? i think? and he sewed them all on a treadle. kudos to the hubby! he has won my vote.
