    Thank you so much for the compliments. I'm working on a black and gold chenille quilt now. I make the chenille myself, on the edges of the pieces. Will post a picture after I prep the first finished block. One is finished, but the chenille is not. I have to put it through the dryer before the threads are right.

    Oh my goodness!! Sounds like your quilt has been the constant thread through all your troubles! You have stitched your life into it! I hope it brings you great comfort now.

    So far, it has. Thank you. Only fellow quilters can relate to what I'm talking about. I receive so much peace when I'm quilting. I've thought a lot of thoughts, replayed conversations, and mentally replayed experiences while working on it. Now, I look at particular blocks and my experiences reappear as though they occurred just yesterday. This one particular quilt does have a lot of life stitched into it.

    It looks great. I am impressed. The center rose could actually be cut out of glass

    You are asking what we think??? I think it should have gotten more than an Honorable Mention at the state Fair!!!
    That is breathtaking!!!
    In 10 years, I would have A: Lost the parts, B: Lost my attention span, or C: Moved and lost the box it was in.
    Fabulous work! :thumbup:
