Here it is. Don't know what will show up. Weather here is unpleasant and it is interfering with my computer working correctly. Will try.[ATTACH=CONFIG]565868[/ATTACH]

Your quilt is beautiful! I'm sure it will be treasured for the beauty as much as the sentiment.

I thought I recognized the fabric line. It is from Quilting Treasures, but the name is actually called Rosewater. I bought several yards but don't have a pattern yet, your S&W is certainly a wonderful option!

So lovely! The gray background fabric is just perfect. I am working on a stack and whack right now too. The fabric is Everglades National Park. There are gators, turtles, manatees, flamingoes, egrets and herons, as well as tropical skies and foliage. It's making up into some interesting blocks, each one a surprise. It's also a treat to work with pretty spring like colors when old man winter is with us. That's why I enjoy stack and whack so much, each block is a mini mystery! Your neice will love her new quilt, it's a work of art!
