Your quilt is beautiful and I love the idea of the story labels on the back! Last year I was part of a group making the Underground Railroad quilt from the book by Eleanor Burns - we each made our own and I later donated mine to a "glitzy" auction that is held every year in our area to benefit the local Women's Shelter. I know your friend will treasure that quilt forever!

WOW! Your friend is going to be blown away by your talent. I've see the quilt pattern several times always with a light sashing and love your choice of the darker. Thanks for sharing.
