    So good that you were able to finish it. What a waste it would have been to have been stashed away in a closet somewhere. Great job

    Outstanding....really beautifully put together. You have done a great job bringing this UFO to life. Auntie should be very, very, pleased.

    I don't feel so bad that mine is taking so many years to complete!

    Is that all hand quilted????

    This is a gorgeous quilt, and I love the way you finished it. This one is special!

    Adding my compliments. Your hand-quilting does the rest of the quilt proud. What a beautiful family heirloom. Please tell me you put a label on it, too. I am working on one but think it will take me 10 more years to finish. I really admire my mom for making hers back in the 30's. They are all labors of love.

    Your 80 year old aunt won't believe how beautiful this quilt is. This is the prettiest quilt I've seen posted on the site - and your quilting is beautiful. Thank you for giving my eyes something to "feast" on - as now I want to make one...just like this one! Thanks much to both you and your aunt. Libby
