    Default Finally on my bed

    I made this BOM two years ago and gave it to my husband for Christmas last year. He kept it in his closet because we had a 17 1/2 year old Yorkie who slept on the bed and he didn't want him sleeping on his quilt. Well, two weeks ago we had to put him down. It was so traumatic for us - losing our little buddy after so long, but one day I realized I could get out this quilt and put it on the bed! So here's a picture of it. It's so big - larger than a king size. It's made with Civil War fabrics. I hate doing flying geese and this is chocked full of flying geese!

    I am so sorry about your fur baby. Losing a pet is very hard.
    The quilt is beautiful and really fits the room. You did good work on it.
