    Thanks to all of you ladies who helped me put together enough Peanuts fabrics to do this quilt for my Mom!

    I would not normally mix so many prints of similar scale, but this is JUST FOR FUN!!! I can't even say I did a very good job on it! I just didn't want to kill myself over it. Mom will understand, I'm sure.

    For the first time I used Warm and Natural batting in a quilt I machine-quilted myself. It certainly is a pleasure to work with! I only stitched in the ditch. I didn't want to have quilting running through the characters, making them look strange.

    I hope all of you who helped me out can see your additions in the close-up pic. Thanks again!!!

    The large Snoopy in the lower righthand corner is an applique.....it took forever to hand sew that baby on! I put it on last, in case Mom needs to remove it (if it doesn't hold up).

    ps. I would have cropped the picture of the whole quilt, but I need to reload my photoshop, and didn't want to take the time!

    Awwwww, it's so cute! And I am so tickled to have had a very small part in contributing. What fun it is to keep passing on the joy of quilting.
