    Very nice. Is it already trimmed, because maybe you could self bind or do the frameless (?) binding like this: http://thesillyboodilly.blogspot.com...y-to-face.html.

    Breathtaking! I am in awe of the background mountains, the ones done in grays, your skill at bringing out the shadows and highlights and creating depth is truly inspiring. Your son will love this.

    I've so enjoyed watching this come to life on your blog. Thanks for sharing.

    caspharm, thanks for the link. I too think it's a great way to finish the quilt. I'm going to try it on some of my mini's.
