I DO remember our online chat just like it was yesterday. You were so supportive. Everytime I complain to my dh that I think I'm doing just awful, he tells me to pull out some of my first practice quilt pieces. He is very supportive and helpful with some designing too. He can picture what something will look like. I can't tell until I see it done. That does pose a problem with having to come up with quilting designs. Thank you soooooooooo muchl. You're the greatest and I know you can type much better now :-).

Sorry, you can still see the chalk lines in the border.

Margie, :lol: :lol: :lol: you gave me a good laugh, thank you. My timeline isn't all that far from 100 either :shock: :wink: That's why I'm in such a hurry to get to my masterpiece, whatever that will be. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

The quilt is only 58 x 68, sorry, not big enough for a bed.
