    Default mean ol' quilt!

    I've been working on this for a long time. I started thinking of it as a Mean Ol' Quilt. Way too many things went wrong and it got to the point that I didn't want to work on it but I persevered and it is finally finished! It is not quite lumpy as it looks. I laid it out on top of weeds, dirt and spring dandilions so now must go wash it and get rid of the pollen on it! The second pic is the original focus fabric.

    Wow! Beautiful! Well worth all the effort you put into it. It isn't "mean ole' quilt" now!
