    Well, here it is, flaws and all. I see them more in the pictures, but they are "flaws of love". The fabric was provided by QFK.

    I don't see the flaws, just a really neat quilt. Good job.

    You will probably be the only one to see the flaws. We are always so much harder and more critical of ourselves. I'm sure there is a child who will LOVE it and feel loved everytime he/she holds it.

    What a fun quilt, the kids should love it. I'm sure your the only one who will see the flaws. I have to remember to stand back and look at big picture not just that seam or block I'm working on at the time. Job well done! :)

    As we had said on previous threads; we are our own worst critics. I didn't take time to draw stitching, just did it by eye. I saw some places that looked like I was drinking my wine while I was stitching. But as you say, some child will be thrilled with it and won't see what I see. After all that is the object isn't it? :lol:

    This one they supplied the fabric. It is great because it is all cut out and ready to go. I assembled the top in 2 hours. Then it took about 2 hours to quilt it.
