Finally Done!

I finally have finished my Celtic Solstice. It is in the washer now. When it is dry, I will call my cousin and ask her to come over. She don't know it but it is a gift for her.

    Absolutely stunning! One of these years I have to try Bonnie's project - this quilt makes me want to give it a try. You did a beautiful job and your cousin will be thrilled!

    Well the quilt is gone. My cousin saw this quilt the day I loaded it on the frame and her eyes just lit up. I have always heard that if someone's eyes light up at your project, then that person should be the one to gift it to. So I called her and told her to come over that I had made smoked turkey salad and had some for her. She cried when she found out I was giving her the quilt. Of course she took the turkey salad too. LOL When I smoke a turkey she and her sister seem to just come visit all of a sudden. It is like they can smell it from home.

    Bonnie's patterns and mysteries are really easy. She breaks them up into doable steps.

    Lovely, Jackie! I'm sure your cousin will treasure it.

    I made a quilt several years ago from blocks I won at a guild meeting. They we're fall colors, which I really don't like. I was showing it off at work and one coworker just went on and on about it, so I gave it to her. She told me often how much she loved it.

    It's a stunner! I want to write on my calendar to have some time freed up to try one this year. I can't remember. Did this start in January or was it earlier?

    Bonnie posts the fabric requirements toward the end of October, then the first clue is given the Friday after Thanksgiving.

    Gorgeous! Your cousin is so lucky -- a Gift of a quilt and smoked turkey salad -- what a great day! It is so nice for you, to give a quilt as a surprise,when you know the recipient already loves the quilt. Win - win.
    You did a wonderful job on this mystery!
