    I made one of these in a block swap a few years ago. It was called "Be My Neighbor," and I liked the birds scattered here and there. It was fun to make, and yours looks really nice. Here's mine (not a great photo).

    Great finish. I love the gifted top, the back is the best jelly roll race I’ve seen put together. Wonderful way to deal with two ( unliked) Quilts- put them together they become very liked.

    Win-Win for both you and your friend. It was nice of your friend to gift you with a quilt she didn't love. You did a wonderful job of giving it a forever home.

    Don't you just love it when such a gift comes your way. It is true what they say about,"beauty being in the eye of the beholder."
    Your quilt is beautiful and will be such a treasure.
