OMG ! So happy you finished it, this one did not need to be stashed away, it needs to be shown and loved.

Nice job! I have some of those 15-year old WIP's that I plan to complete - my bucket list... I already finished a few, and yes, I "un-sewed" some of the piecing since my quilting/sewing has improved over the years.
