    Great job, I like how you used it for accent in the other pictures. It will give you many warm evenings on the couch.

    You should consider leaving it on that beautiful wooden bench. It's just perfect there. The quilt looks good. I didn't see any boo-boos at all. I just saw a nice quilt for snuggling on the sofa!

    Aw thanks all Sadly, the bench was sold shortly after I made it. I miss it, and I told the lady to let me know if she ever changes decor; Id buy it back! LOL I had a lot of time in that one!

    And let me tell ya about boo-boo's, though unseen! Ugh!!! Half my seams (where the binding is) are coming apart. (Not for lack of stitches, but for not stitching far enough over...) Since I have ZERO binding ability, the one corner is a complete and total hack job... LOL!

    Pictures (and how you fold a quilt) can be very forgiving. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Stacey, you did a great job on both the quilt and the bench. Your choice of colors for your boo boo quilt are nice and calm. We all have a boo boo quilt. Some of us have two. I felt the need to make each of my daughters a quilt at the same time. That way no one could say that I loved the other more. So 1/2 of each of the quilts look really wonky and the other 1/2 has corners that butt up nicely. They both look interesting and tell a story, but keep my girls warm.

    Love the personal touch in your name and the story you added. Have a great day!
