    Again, beautiful quilt. I'm sure it will be a blue winner!

    Thank you, Phyllis
    Just went back and re-read. It's 4.5 in. hex's. not 6. Wonder where I came up with that!!?? :oops:

    The quilt is beautiful! Reminds me of cathedral window but has more sides - never seen that pattern. Did you make that up?
    Love it.

    You should be congratulated on your patience and creativity. I think that quilting is art and you are a master!

    I just noticed your dog in your picture. Looks just like my little Schatzie. They are so cute.
