Thank you quilter2theend, This is one quilt that I will never part with, as it was made for my late DH. He chose the layout and enjoyed watching it grow, in fact it was only supposed to be a lap quilt for him, but he requested that I made it a kingsize for when he became bed bound, which I did

Izy, I wondered what in the world could have garnered all these replies, so I thought I'd just take a peak. Well. Now I know: Utter Fabulousness, that's what! So beautiful - you have an amazing eye for color!

Anyone can do it if you are brave enough, which I found VERY hard in the beginning but by the end found it such fun and liberating to just go with the flow!
