Before Christmas 2010.
I was so very afraid that my Christmas present for Ranchgirl from 2009 was going to extend into the year of 2011. But.......I am finished.
I am ashamed it has taken me so long. But ya know that thing called life.
And....someone that does not have that much experience with handquilting really should not take on a queen size quilt as the first really big project.
And...I will never...or maybe never make another pieced border again. It requires lots of math. I hate math.
And...when they say to make sure you have enough fabric for a project...listen. Fabric comes and fabric goes..especially when it is on clearance...need I say more?
Here it is....Tada!!!
I am as happy as a pig in the mud!
Left the Christmas festivities begin!
GOd Bless and Happy Trails

Looks great! Now, just wondering if you would mind swinging over here and helping me finish the unfinished quilt I have!?! :-)

I told DD that some things are just worth waiting for...and this gorgeous quilt is one of them. I'm so impressed - handquilting a queen-sized quilt is no smaill feat. Now I will never have to ask you that question again...have you finished her quilt? Now I get to bug you about the one for your bed. Grin.
OhMyGosh! That is gorgeous!
I wouldn't care if it took 2 Christmas'...that is beautiful and worth waiting for.
