I KNOW MY ABC'S----

so what do you think of me??????

Here is the latest Quilt report---
All applique is finished--
All hand quilting is finished--

All the leaves have a 'vein' stitched in the centers--
All the flowers that need button centers are sewin on--
the windows on the house have been re-stitched--
the quilt has it's binding all done--
So let's see--
that is alot of check marks--
In fact looks like all the boxes are filled in--
so that must mean---
Time for a Happy Dance--
Cause--Cause that must mean that the ABC quilt is allllllllllllllllllllll done!!!
WOW----
I have worked on this one like I said off and on for 8 years--
and the funny thing is--as it was so large--
it was hard for me to really see the "big" picture of it--
so when I got it hung on the wall today--
welllllllllll--
I am in love!!!!!!

Here is the pattern--

Your quilt is beautiful! I can see why it has taken so long to complete. I especially love the border with the flowers and birds.
You really did a great job! Nola
