    Default upate: quilt complete

    I finished the quilt, I think it turned out perfect for them. I gave this to my Son and DIL last Saturday. They both said thanks. My DS picked it up to make sure it would be long enough for him, he is 6'3", and of course it was. Hope you all like my completed quilt. :-)

    And I have requests but no time to make - full time work plus volunteer things.

    I have committed to making one sister her country quilt - queen size - I am going to do log cabins and schoolhouse blocks, paper pieced. It will take about a year (I hope it is finished by Christmas).

    I will then have to work through who is serious about wanting a quilt.

    Can't take early retirement - another 4 years........sigh
