In between all those days and times, life happens. Children to care for, dinners to cook, laundry to do, errands to run, yard work to take care of, etc.

I like the pattern with all the blues. My quilts take months:)
WOW! I love the blues and so pretty! It looks HUGE too! That will be fun to snuggle under!
Wish I had your nighttime energy. If I had tried to do lay out after 8:00 I'd have had to start the whole thing over by morning. Good job!
I just love blues and I think your quilt is terrific.

It's lovely and I like the meandering quilting lines! Great to see step by step pics and get an idea about tim, too. :)
