  10. That is GORGEOUS!! I did one years ago with tiny little blocks and ONE DANG BLOCK didn't fit and I tried twice to fix it and it's still laying around. :-( It'll probably never get done (so annoying)

    My blog is private now, but by next week I hope to have two finishes. One is a quilt for my son I started three years ago! The other one is a Swoon quilt for my granddaughters that I started last year. I am so excited to be down to the binding part using your tutorial, of course. ;)

  28. Spectacular! Really swell! Seeing your quilts always brings me joy. Can't wait to see it again after it's quilted and bound.

  29. Love the red 'fire in the hearth' center of each of the blocks, and the use of a mix of light fabrics instead of a constant muslin. Super job, and, yes, it is a happy quilt.
