You did a beautiful job. I'm sure the parents of the child would love to have a quilt or wall hanging as a gift. I know I would. It's delightful.

That is wonderful, I'm sure it will be cherished by the 'little one' for years to come.

If this is a 'challenge' in your guild, where there are winners, I'm guessing you will win! Wonderful accomplishment.

I'm just in awe that one can take a picture and turn it into such a lovely quilt! The whole process baffles me. How did you learn to do this? It's a wonderful quilt!

I am in the process of writing a book about it with a goal to have it finished and copyrighted this year.

Dear Girl,
I hope you will let us know when the book is ready and how we can obtain it. I'm at the top of the list of buyers! Are you self-publishing?
