Labor of Love and Memories

It's done!  It's done!  It is packed up and waiting to go to the post office.


It's big.  Way big.  I went a little crazy with the pictures.  72 blocks.  3 months to complete.  I am thrilled it is finished on time and it's off my project list.






I had fun picking pictures.  Especially those with my Grandfather.  He passed away 35 years ago.  I remember him a little.  Wish my memories of him were stronger.  I can't wait to get it back all quilted and give it to my Grandmother for Christmas.  I showed it off over the last week and everybody who saw it just loved it.  Some people asked "You MADE that?!".  I was proud to say "Yes I did!".

Enjoy your day!
Jen :)
