For the first time, I have had no urge to apologize for a quilt that I have made. Yes, there are imperfections in it and things I would do differently next time but I am so pleased with the overall result that I was thrilled to gift it to a dear friend! Of course, I have been working on it off and on for a year and a half. I guess I needed time to create?  |
| This turned out to be a lap size blanket. Originally, I was going to pair the colored fabric with white but last summer when I saw the pile of denim squares sitting next to the colored ones, I knew they were a perfect match! |
 |
| I wish I had talked to Karen first about how she did her bows. If I had, I might not have had to hand stitch 98 bows in place. Needless to say, my fingers were very raw afterward. |
 |
| I have always wanted an excuse to buy minky fabric. I was so excited to find my reason! |
 |
| I love the varieties of texture in this quilt. And, between the denim and the minky and the batting, this makes a VERY warm blanket. |

How great to finish a big project. Looks great. I love the bows. I have never seen those! :)
I love the colors against the denim! It looks so snuggable too:). Beautiful Job!
A quilt is a quilt, it's a lot of work so gush on, it's adorable!!
That is so beautiful! I have been saving denim for years for some kind of quilt. I like how you paired it with colors. You're so creative!
I love how it turned out! I remember going over the layout of your colored squares with you last year. They look great with the denim! And minky... who wouldn't love a lap quilt made with minky! Great job, Mary!!
