So pretty! Whatever you end up doing with it it is just a great quilt all around!
I bought one at a second hand store to practice on. I just got a quilting frame although I only have my home sewing machine right at this moment. I'm hoping to upside my throat by xmas if all goes right. I'm keeping an eye out on craigslist for a deal that my husband won't be able to refuse - haven't found it yet but I'm still hopeful!

If you still can't find a home for it pack it up and send it to the school my kids go to. The school has no funding and to get money for the library this year they are holding a raffle - each classroom has to make up a basket and the baskets will be raffled off. I'm sure that it would be a popular item! I wish I could quilt as nicely as you do or else I would make one up - I'm planning on making several fabric baskets and whatnot - I have two kids in the school there so I'll be sewing for days to make up some nice stuff for the raffle.

I wish the lady that sold this on ebay could see it now in all it's glory. Wonderful job on the quilting! You will enjoy the hand work of the bias edging, because you can admire your work as you put it on. Just make it a thin one so it will be easy to ease in on the inside edges. It is beautiful.

Jackie - after all this time - you are still far too humble! Your work is delightful! I agree with those who said you should listen to dh - quit being so darned critical of yourself - did you become the local "QUILT POLICE"?

I wish I could do anything close to your quilting - and have all the faith in your ability to bind it and make it absolutely perfect!

Rein, you still crack me up. Thank you for the compliment. Just think, if I did everything the way I think it should be, I'd be perfect and we wouldn't want that.
