    FABULOUS. Someone on here posted pics once of some furniture (they didnt do it I think it was in a magazine) that was all quilted...OMG I loved it and I love yours too.

    I must say you are very creative. Cute how you decorated the front of the arms. Too pretty to sit on. You must make alot of quilts. Did save you money because you didn't need that new couch.

    I love the pillows too. they are great.

    Beautiful!! Are you going to actually let people sit on it? I would be worried about the wear. Please check it carefully from time to time to make sure it is holding up. I read somewhere that sitting and the moving around people do on a seat causes a lot of wear to a quilt.

    I have been sitting on it for a couple of months. I did free motion quilting and kept it very tight. If it lasts a few years, I will be happy...because I will then have the excuse to do it again!
