    I'm so glad you like it. I changed directions on it 4 times. It sort of grew as I worked on it. LOL I was looking at your DQ which I will post here in a few mins. and noticed you wrote on your backing for the label just like I did! But I love how you added borders to your label. That is a neat idea! I was trying to avoid hand sewing as my rt hand has problems rt now. But I screwed up the hearts I drew so I had to hand applique a heart over the mess I made! LOL

    Your picture of the quilt is so much better than mine. I am using my DD camera til I can buy a new one. I knocked my camera off the table and smashed the lens in. I was so disgusted with myself. This camera seems to take dark pics. I have changed settings and just can't seem to get it better. I hope to get a new one soon!

    I recieved my quilt from jacie today, along with a ncie card, some fabric, and a tissue holder! Love it all. My DH says that I'm the last to use my camera, but I'm skeptical. Will post pics when we find out who was right! :)

    Rhonda--your quilt to RoS yells your name! The fabric, the style of the string blocks, the shape of the hearts. How lovely! G

    thanks Gladie. It is a combination of things that is for sure! Can you tell I love long skinny hearts? LOL Gotta be differant than the norm! My Drs kept telling me I was an oddity because of various health concerns that they couldn't explain! LOL So I guess I am an oddity and love to live up to that name! This is a one of a kind quilt for sure!

    I'm just slow Sharon! Sorry! I got caught up in getting a tutorial ready over the last couple of days and I just didnt get it on.

    Here is the really pretty fruity doll quilt I got from
    Sharon!! I love it! She also sent the pattern with it so I could make the jar if I want to!! Thanks so much Sharon!

    She embroidered the word Summer above the jar

    I am posting again front and back of the doll quilt (wall hanging).

    I am happy you like it Rhonda! I had to take out the first quilting and redo, it was just not right :) The extra jar cut out and material could be used for a tea towel.
