That is beautiful! A true testament to the importance of accurate cutting and seaming :) You title is simply perfect, I can't wait to see how you quilt it, the perfect lines seem to call out for something geometric instead of organic...

I simply LOVE IT....I am different than all the rest...HOW did you do it? Did you piece the light gray and dark gray in strips....then put the white over from top to botton? That would be my guess......It is really pretty. Thanks....Judy B

Pink Passion Flower said...

Okay, first I thought you were a little crazy (looks like a piece of big gingham print - that's the point right?), then I enlarged it and saw all the WORK......
Now I know you aren't crazy, you are totally nuts!!
Incredible job, can't imagine having that type of patience.
Well done.

Tami said...

I love that you made gingham. My mom LOVES gingham, this totally gives me a great idea for her birthday gift! Thanks for your creativity.

Renae said...

I completely understand the thinking of "to prove I can", but I do agree this is nuts.

Long live the insanity!

Bonnie said...

Very fun, and gratifying to know that I got to help the tiniest bit in your putting this together!
It was great getting to visit with you again. I so admire all you get accomplished!
