    You did a beautiful job on this quilt. I think your step daughter will agree that it's worth the wait!

    Beautiful! I love the colors, the applique and especially the centre and outside borders, so much work.

    Absolutely gorgeous! I love how you repeated the design on the outer border. And the appliqued inner border is beautiful! She will have a very Merry Christmas for sure!

    Thank you! It was a bit tricky, but I learned a lot playing! I actually traced the pattern from the corners of the center panel...not easy with a mouse and a computer, lol!

    The applique border is "raw edge" applique designed on my quilting program "EQ7". A LOT of work cutting out the pieces and stitching them all down, but I'm happy with the way it turned out.

    Thank you all for your kind comments
