    Thank you all for the wonderful comments! I believe her plans are to enter this one in MQX East coming up here in April - cross your fingers for her!

    Thank you so very much - this one took somewhere between 45-50 hours. I hadn't planned originally on spending that much time on it, but she is a friend and fellow long armer so I took extra care. I also tied and buried all knots which adds quite a hunk of time onto the quilting, as I knew she wanted to show this.
