Sometimes we need a little fire under our feet to get us going don't we? The result is well worth it--the quilt is wonderful!

Good on ya, Jane. I love the colors. Reminds me of Mary Englebright.

Nanci said...

It's so cute...it needs an angel on it to dress it up.
Couldn't resist that.
I can't believe that you let this beauty sit there that long.
Very very sweet.

Great quilt! Love the colours. The black sashing and borders set the blocks off very well. I wonder if you would have used a black and white sashing if you had finished it 10 years ago.

Love the bright colors.
Keep Stitchen'
