Those gorgeous feathers show up so nicely and your SS will absolutely love this quilt. I know *I* do -- not sure if I could have parted with it. Wonderful job and thanks for sharing. WOW! Denise in Ontario, Canada Thanks, Denise! I didn't originally plan to give this one away, but it sort of asked to go.... Gosh -- it's not as though I beat it or anything, either! -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas my ISP is earthlink.net -- put sfoster1(at) in front http://home.earthlink.net/~sfoster1 |

Absolutely beautiful, Sandy! The blue thread was the right choice!
-- Wendy http://griffinsflight.com/Quilting/quilt1.htm De-Fang email address to reply Put on your Big Girl panties and just deal with it. -- unknown "Sandy Foster" wrote in message ... Sunday night I finished another quilt, and today I took pics and put them on my site at http://home.earthlink.net/~sfoster1/sampler.html (at the bottom of the page). This is one that started out to be a block challenge in the online francophone group I belong to, but it became something of a nightmare when I realized that every block was a wildly different size, varying from 8" to 13". I'd made all of them myself, but I hadn't redrafted the patterns to a standard size first. Setting them together was the real challenge. However, a Setting Solutions class with Sharyn Craig last summer solved my problems (she had me remake most of the blocks to get them to a uniform size -- some were cut down, others had stuff added to make them larger), and now the quilting, binding and label are all in done. This one is going to my step-sister -- the one who's taking me to China in March. She doesn't know about it yet. g I'm calling it Réussite, since it's a success story ("réussite" means "success" in French) I didn't think was going to happen. One little postscript: Sharyn Craig will be teaching a couple of classes here in LV this weekend, and I'm planning to show her the finished quilt before mailing it to my DSS -- I have to prove I could do it!
