    Just wanted to show you some pictures of my recent quilt. Yep, I made one for myself, after all of my family had theirs. Can't belive it, though, I made one for myself.

    It's mostly white with a little light grey, sand/tan or small flowers on white. The Ninepatches are all the same, the white squares in between are made from vintage fabric, mostly pillowcases with embroidery or lace.

    Please saddle your horse and galop by really fast, b/c this was my first attempt on stippling with puckers here and there :oops: .

    Love it! Your wait was well worth it. What a lot of patience to collect all of the materials.

    I love the "softness" of quilts like this :) Great job.
