I just finished my king size quilt.. Only you guys would apperciate this news. I have made so many quilts for evryone else .. but this one is for my bed.. I will post pictures as soon as the sun comes up.. I am so darn proud! My husband fussed at me for going to the laundry mat at 9 at night to wash and dry it.

It is SOOOOO GORGOUS..... and I MADE IT!!!!

This is my excitement.. the colors are blue and white .. the borders are tan and blue.

I quilted this on my sewing machine.... I stitched in the ditch every vertical line. WHAT A JOB.. that is why it took so long. The borders I quilted with either wavy lines or straight lines.

Best of all Tyson LOVES it.. as long as the dog and momma are happy life is GRAVY!
