    This will become known in my family as the quilt from hell.
    Have you ever started a project that when thought of and planned, sounded just wonderful? But ends up nothing like you pictured it in your mind and you are soooo disappointed that you want to cry? Well, this one is mine...It is for my now 18 year old nephew and was supposed to be a sort of retrospective. The theme was his favorite movie of all times, The Wizard of OZ and shows his journey along the yellow brick road.
    Well if no one looks closely it will pass inspection and his mother will cry and love it, but I secretly hope I can do another one for him down the road.

    It looks good from here. It appears to have a lot of special memories on it.
