Oh, Donna, your quilt is just WONDERFUL!!! Guess now I need to get busy and finish mine, huh?

What size is your quilt?

I was just trying to determine if I wanted to put all 24 blocks of mine in one quilt for hubby to use in his chair or not :D :D But that size might work -- I'll have to measure him when he's all laid back :lol: :lol: :lol: (Thanks!)

That's lovely! I think if I was going to use red I would look for that polka dot fabric.

I also love your sister's (EllenK) quilt. I wish she had posted it in pictures so more people would see it. I am planning to make something very similar for one of mine soon I hope. I have all the material but wanted to finish something else first.

It only uses 12 blocks but with all the sashing it looks like a full bed size if you wanted something larger than Donna's.
