The Grinch... and this quilt was so hard to do.. had to take the pictures and make the frames to fit the little squares.. it took almost 3 weeks to get this far.. it is 80 x 110.. now it will go to the quilter to work her magic..I just have to do some embroidery in the blank green block.. it is hanging over the railing so you can't see all the rest which is two more rows of Grinch pictures.. it will be bound with he green and lime green stripe..

How strange is it , I just am finishing a quilt with a similar layout, which is something I hadn't intended to due. So I love it

I would say that all of that work was worth the effort. You have a very nice pictorial quilt here. Great job!! You should post it again after you get it back from being quilted. Enjoy it!! :)

Endurance.. that's what we're all made of. And just look at your result.. how grand and perfect for the holidays!! Hmmm, how about adding your own style to the last box.. and the date which it was created, besides every artist signs their name to their work!

Hugs,
Cotton
