    GrannyQ, I am speechless!!! This quilt is just so so...I can't think of a word big enough to express the beauty of this work of art. I hope you enter it somewhere...It deserves the grand prize..Best of Show. I'm looking forward to see what you come up with for the Pony Club.

    Congrats on a job well done!!! I've so loved following your blocks and am so happy to see them all together.
    Though we might be copycats!
    I'll confess I was thinking of blues or greens ... or maybe two main colours with add ins? I SO want to eat up my stash instead of purchasing fabrics.

    Wow that is truly spectacular grannyQ! Lavender is one of my favorite colors as well! You did a wonderful job putting it all together! I just love it!

    I'm so glad your going to be joining us on The Pony Club Quilt as I enjoy seeing your blocks each week.

    You finished the whole thing already, I still have to sandwich and quilt my second half!

    GrannyQ
    What an absolutely stunning quilt! Your individual blocks were always so well done. I couldn't imagine how a quilt of just one color could be done. But yours makes me speechless.

    You should definitely enter it in a big contest. Out on the west coast we have PIQF (pacific international quilt shoe) which is next week. In January we have Road to California. PIQF is put on by Mancuso and they do quilt shows all over the country. I've seen quilts that people in my guild have entered in both and yours is top notch.

    Congratulations on such a excellent job! It's been so much fun going through this process with you!

    GrannieQ, your quilt turned out beautiful! I know I commented all along how wonderful your purple blocks were, and seeing them all together -- WOW! Thank you, and all of you who have posted your beautiful completed quilts, for the eye candy. Can't wait for the next project, even though I haven't finished my FWS yet. :cry:

    That is okay Evie, I'm right along with you. Seems "things" keep getting in the way of getting my second half sandwiched and quilted. I've been working on a table runner and potholders for a wedding shower, then we went on a camping trip, now leaving for Phoenix for a week. But.....I'm going to get that quilt finished, it just is going to be a couple of weeks yet!!! LOL
