It's Done!!! Well, ok, not technically done, but the body of the quilt is finished!!!!.JPG)
That is a LOT of quilting!!!! Whew!!! Three and a half years later......I did put this aside quite often in favor of other projects, but I am so thrilled with the outcome. The borders have already been started and are quilting up pretty fast! In just an hour and a half, I think I have half a side of the pink border done.
I also wanted to share some of Charlotte's newest projects. She has begun a blanket for her bed. It will be twin size, so she has quite a ways to go, though she just started this 4 days ago.

So pretty!!!! In that 4 days she has also crocheted 3 of the 6 dishcloths that were special ordered by her Aunt Debbie. She is making one a day and then working on her own project. Great plan! Here are 2 of the dishcloths......JPG)
She certainly has gotten to be quite the crocheter!! Is that a word???
And as for Sass.....the other female in the house.....though she has no skills with a needle, she can certainly appreciate the benefits of being in a family of yarn and fabric lovers!.JPG)
Grandkids are coming tomorrow! WOOHOO!!! See you next week! Have a blessed weekend!

Congratulations, Bren! The quilt is looking great!
Charlotte is doing a great job on her blanket. I have never crocheted anything that large before
Your quilting is striking, an absolute beauty. Tell Charlotte I could use some of those dishcloths...is she taking commissions.
WOW!!! Way to go, girl! It's absolutely beautiful...I can only imagine what it looks like in person!
And Charlotte! Great Job!
Rob and his brother started tapping yesterday...how is your maple syrup supply holding up?
Hi Bren,
Your quilt is beautiful. Love the hand quilting!! I'm fairly new to your blog, but find your writings to be good for my soul. Thanks.
Charlotte is doing a great job, too! I love watching my daughter in the midst of her own crafty endeavors.
Many blessings,

Bravo!! The pink and brown is so gorgeous. Charlotte's crochet work is becoming more and more accomplished, too. You girls rock!
always nice to get a quilt just about finished - especially after 3 years (been there - done that)
Charlotte's done a good job too!

I'm impressed as usual. It looks super, can't wait to see it on the bed.
Yay! It is beautiful!! I am just totally amazed at your beautiful work. Oh some day, I hope to be 1/2 the quilter you are (doubtful at even that). Oh well, I will enjoy and be inspired by your quilting for now.
