    I know there are a lot of pieces in an Elizabeth Hartman pattern, so I can imagine how long it took to make this beautiful quilt. Congratulations on a fabulous finish. I couldn't part with it, either. So much fun!

    This is going to be a family heirloom for sure. Be sure to make an amazing label so the future generations will know who made it.
    Oh....what quilting pattern are you thinking of for it??

    Amazing quilt! Lots of work, but worth the effort.

    You did an amazing job on this quilt Gale. Will it be for your daughter that inspired the quilt with her parrot? LOL
    I've done a couple Elizabeth Hartman kits (the way to go in my opinion with all the shades and colors!) but they are a lot of work and you DO have to be organized. Can't wait to see it after it's quilted.
