    But people will get to see it and it might inspire them to make one!
    I did not know you could do a quilt in 2 pieces?I have a hard time trying to quilt because of the size of my machine.Tell me how you did it,please.

    I really like this quilt more everytime I look at it and I've wanted to make one for Son1 and his wife but she can be particular for sure. I think this one has a real Awe factor.
    Can you tell me the size/dimensions please?
    Good Luck at the fair, I hope it makes state for you.
