    Here is a picture of the finished wall hanging. Barb - this is super easy - if you can make a circle and a strip, that's pretty much it. I can send instructions to anyone who wants to try.
    Erin - hang in there. I am still looking for a job but I count my blessings with 2 healthy kids (my youngest is a senior in high school - oh boy) so money may be tight but I really can't complain.

    Everyone have a great holiday!!!!!

    My king size quilt is done !!!! 110 x 110. Woo Hoo!!!! Pieced and quilted it myself on my Viking Sapphire. Too big to get a really good picture of it. One picture it is laid out on my floor and the other picture is my DDIL and DS holding it ( the quilt went to them)-- I kinda cut my son off--oops !!!!
    I did not use any of my birthday candy on this one... that pattern is next on my list

    Nothing fancy on the quilting-- just a large circle with a smaller circle on the inside--all over pattern.

    Beatiful quilt, carrot. Trying to figure out the pattern.

    Looks like you were selective on the fabric choice.?
