I have finished the quilt
I have finished the quilt
 Some of you might remember a while back I started a thread about making a quilt for my mom. Alot of you gave me help on the measuring and some advice on making it and some even helped with the design. And for that I am grateful b/c I took all that advice and "smashed" it together and made my quilt and my mother loved it. On Christmas morning when she opened it and the look on her face was worth all the time that I spent putting it together. I have attached some pics of what the finished quilt looks like. Again it is not the greatest thing in the world, it was my first but my mother loved it and that I am grateful for. Thanks again to everyone that helped. Bulldog

It looks great!
Now, if only my mother could get down to finishing my quilt which symbolically gave to me on my 7th birthday, 12 years ago. I don't even *like* pink any longer... -

Ooooh, let's make an AG patchwork quilt!
Everyone stitch their favourite AG character or game scene onto a square, then send it to Bulldog to be assembled!  Okay... Bad idea... I don't even know how to sew.

I feel quilty that I didn't even know you were doing this (though starting a thread on a quilt sounded downright weird to me. Surely you start quilts with thread. Not threads with quilts.
)It looks cool (or, hopefully, warm) Well done you!

Mad skills making that software. Where can I download your QuiltMaker V1.01? And if you say "it's programmed into my brain", don't worry, we have ways of extracting that type of code as well, he he.
