I just have to add more. Here's why I like it so much. You added almost every fancy technique we learned in the past year, especially all the reverse applique, skinny stems, and decorative stitching. When this quilt goes to show, I think this will be an eye-catcher!

Thank you Susan! Funny, how did you know I plan to send it to a show?

I hope to have it accepted at the Vermont Quilt Festival this year. I'll keep you posted...

Barblln OFFLINE Posts: 127 Thank you received: 27	Andrée, Love your birdhouse! I have to tell you that about a month ago I suddenly thought, "why didn't I think about a birdhouse?" So it is really lovely to see yours; it is absolutely perfect. What fun it has been to see the great variety and personalization in everyone's quilts. I enjoyed this BOM more than I can say!

suehenyon OFFLINE Posts: 1796 Thank you received: 51	Loving the changes to the 2013, especially since I have the feeling this quilt won't be completed in 2013. I'm 3/4 of the way through month 4, just studied the picture to realize all the borders are different. Great job, everyone!
