Thank you mcgraw. I don't know about "proud", more relieved when it
was finished !!

Thank you so much. Just read your profile
and I reckon you deserve a whole bunch of
flowers for the job you do as a Mum.*4U

Thank you Hilde, glad you like it.*4U

Thank you Lyn. Yes it was more a work of love, I never mind what I do for my sons,
even if it gets boring !!!

Thanks Shirlene, yes it was done in the
hoop, and it is Chantell's Creations. It
was rather heavy when it was finished,but
the look on my son's face was all the
thanks I needed !!

Thank you Sharron. The design came from
Chantell's Creations, she has some really
lovely designs.

Thank you so much

Thank you Marji. Yes really, it was made
in a hoop, the 5x7 hoop.There were 13
pieces to make up one block, and there
were 36 blocks altogether, so you can see
how many times you have to hoop up the
stabilizer, wadding,top material, and lining. If you get this particular
design from Chantell's Creations.com
there is a tutorial with it that gives
you all the details, and photographs,
of how to make it. It is very easy to
follow, just make sure you have enough
thread, I think I used 4 or 5 reels on this.

Thank you. When the 36 blocks were made
(with 13 pieces in each), I joined them
from top to bottom with a zig-zag stitch
first, then a satin stitch, then I did the
same from side to side, but you do need
a lot of room to do the final stitching.
I had the quilt spread over the table
and an armchair, I couldn't let it drape
on the floor because of the dog walking over it !!

Thank you so much. I think it took about 6
months, it would have taken less time if I had kept at it, instead of doing other
things in between !! *4U

Thank you very much. *4U
