Another late Christmas Finish

 I have finally finished Rebecca's Christmas present and from the look on her face I don't think she will let me have it back to take a better picture of it.  I started this quilt a couple months ago.  The blocks were given to me from one of my guild members at the SLMQG I would tell you there name but I sadly can't remember.  Speaking of my memory I am not one that is good at all at remembering names which often times causes me frustration because I hate to admit I can't remember a name.  But since I am being honest It did take me 3 dates to remember Tanya's name (I wrote her name on my hand before I went to pick her up so that I would not forget it.  Admittedly I should have written it some where she would not notice as she still teases me from time to time.)  But since she is still with me 20 years later I am hoping the guild member that gave me these will forgive me too.  Any way if any one in the guild reads this please remind me who gave them to me so I can thank them properly.

The reason this quilt has taken so much time to finish is that it is the largest quilt that I have ever made.  It was really hard to quilt.  I realized that the space I quilt it just does not accommodate the size of this quilt.  And another thing I realized is quilting a huge quilt makes you really hot with the thing draped all over you.  The whole time I have been making this quilt I have been teasing Rebecca that this was a donation quilt.  When I finished it she grabbed it and screamed MINE! and ran off and would not let me get with in arms reach of the quilt.  Even now i am not sure where she hid it.  Oh well hope she loves her late Christmas present.
