    Well, folks. Here it is, all washed and cuddly. It has character, that's for sure. When I made the blocks, I should have made them 1/4" smaller. I had to add to the fleece side for everything to come together. When I went to get green fleece, the only one they had to match was Minky. It is so stretchy and hard to work with; but is okay if you don't look too close. I ended up binding it with the stripe on the bias. I starched it so it went just fine. Here are pictures taken on my spare bed. The label says "To Gabrielle With Love From Grannie Christmas 2010" I used pink & green variegated thread for the quilting & the label.
