I just want to say thank you to everyone who gave words of encouragement when my husband and I were "unquilting" the quilt that ended up with multiple pleats and folds on the back. The quilt is done:
Trixie
Ooooh, that's beautiful! :)
That is absolutely beautiful. I know it was a pain to unquilt, but oh, what a wonderful result. Your niece will love it!
Wow that is a really nice quilt. I love the fabric and the pattern you chose :) It inspires me to stop playing this silly video game and get quilting hehe. It is georgeous :):) Your niece is very lucky indeed :)
Carissa

It's beautiful! Your niece will have a treasure to keep forever!

Now we can see why you were willing to unquilt. Oh my. That's one 'knock your socks off' quilt. Wow. Polly
OMYGOSH!!!!!!!!!!!! That is gorgeous, beauteous, outstanding................
Wow, that was certainly well worth 'fixing'. What gorgeous, rich fabrics. . In message , Trixie writes
I'm so glad you didn't give up on this quilt, Trixie! It is simply stunning! What a captivating medallion. And the way you fussy cut the fabric for the blocks and borders is just awesome. I hope to work up to this level of expertise sometime.
If I'd made this quilt, I'm not sure I could part with it. Lucky, lucky niece!
Best regards, Michelle in NV
It's stunning. You are truly gifted and your niece is one lucky bride.

Thank you everyone for the kind remarks!
Michelle: after what I went through with this quilt I can't wait to part with it!
Trixie
LOL! Yeah, I can see that, having had the desire to take a pair of scissors to some of my projects and cut them into itty-bitty pieces. ;-)

What a beautiful quilt!!
I love it! I just love the design and colors. Michele in Ohio
Good thing my Madness quilt wasn't a gift. My reaction was just the opposite. No way I was going to subject my quilt to popsicles, hairy-legged louts, pizza and eau d' coconut sun screen. I may get over it but for now the quilt stays in my cold little hands. Polly
"Trixie" after what I went through with this quilt I can't wait to part
Really pretty! Love the way you fussy cut the fabrics! Glad it came out the way you wanted it to.
She's a lucky neice.
