    I finished this ages ago, but my computer got a virus. This is the quilt I made for my Mum. She asked for a dragon design so I adapted a cross stitch design to make this. The squares are 2" square and this has 900 squares in the main bit.

    My mum likes it, it's already on her bed!

    Cool! This is a great pattern for a kids room too. I like that you added the prairie points on the edge to give it additional color along the border. You should sell this design.

    Awesome quilt and what a creative way to adapt the original pattern to one for quilting.

    What a fun quilt! That's a great idea to adapt cross stitch designs to quilting...I may have to give that a try!
