Wow you finished the top so quickly! Oh my goodness, that came out so beautiful! I love how you fussy cut the fabric so the flowers fit into each block. You know I do love those colors. I know your wife will treasure it always.
Can't wait to see it finished!

BEAUTIFUL!!! You did a fabulous job on matching the stripes in that corner. Are you sure that you only started quilting? Your work is terrific!!!

Thanks again, all. Here's a pic showing the backing fabric I'm going to be using (on the right). Purple is my wife's favorite color. :) That green I have laid in there will be the binding.
