    This is my 1st complete quilt, given to my 89 year young daddy. I have 2 more to finish for Christmas presents, so those guys have IOU's. I have learned so much from this board and you guys. I found that quilting a good looking piece is harder than it looks, and that I can take simple things and make them sooo complicated. Anyway I will try again, improve my skills, finish these Christmas presents, and then finish my UFO from 1972. Happy New Year!!

    That is gorgeous! Cherish your dad while you can, I miss mine terribly and he has been gone for 17 years.

    I love your dad's quilt! I've never seen a design like that. Did you design it? It's beautiful. :thumbup:

    PS: Welcome to the board from Ohio. Glad to have you!

    Hello and welcome from Northern California! What a beautiful quilt. It's even more beautiful with your Dad wrapped around it.
