Thank you so much for your kind comments. This quilt is actually for my mom. It was originally going to be for Mother's Day but I'm going back home for a short trip next week (I live in MS and all my family lives in WA) and decided to work hard to get it finished before I left. I never get to give gifts in person anymore and I would really love to give her this in person. Hopefully she'll like it!

LoL, we can get Eddie to try out new stuff for us, then blame him when we like it and make one ourselves. :)

Make sure and post pics when you finish yours!

Oh I will! I'll call the thread 'This is Eddie's fault'

:mrgreen: :lol:
