Finishing a quilt is a reason to celebrate!Just the fact that I can finish a quilt in spite of working full-time, being a daughter, sister, wife and Mom of a 14 year old invloved in baseball and jazz band leaves me feeling deeply satisfied. The creative process centers me; from choosing the fabrics, patterns and threads all the way to adding the binding. . .

Excited. I can't wait to get it washed and dried to see it and cuddle it. Then I fold them and put them in a large plastic case the ones a comforter comes in. Then when I need one as a gift its already to go.

Yippeee!!! All my hard work has paid off and I am satisfied with what I have accomplished. It may not be perfect, each quilt is a new learning experience and I am glad to have the opportunity to learn.
