When I first read this, I thought it said 4 years to make. Then I read 4 months. You must have been quilting every day for many hours! You sure are fast. It's beautiful! Can you give us more info? Fabric brand and color. What kind of batting? What kind and weight of thread? Thanks.

The quilt top is by Benartex and I chose the natural color (white was the other option). The batting was Dream, which is 100% cotton and wonderful to work with. I used just a simple thread to match the fabric which was again all cotton. The ladies in the quilting group I sew with took care care in hand stitching this with me over those 4 months. It is something I will treasure, both for the actual quilt and the time spent with friends.
