    Wow Mary Jane. I love that. See I knew there was music in your life-that's why your RR got piano keys :D
    Did you get it finished? And a Happy Birthday (belated) to your father!!

    Okay,
    Yes I got the quilt finished on time. My wrists and fingers are still hurting.
    Here is a picture of him holding the quilt at his front door.
    The quilt you've already seen.
    He was very happy, he even cried.
    I'm now going to work on Mama a quilt, but first have to finish this flying geese quilt by tomorrow night!

    Oh, I bet your fingers are sore!! It really looks good though and I just know he loved, loved, loved it! He looks proud of it and you! :lol:

    The polka dots were perfect for the binding...Great job! (Mom is probably jealous of his quilt by now, so yes, you better get busy! :wink: )
