Well, here it is.


When it's quilted, it'll have a narrow dark red binding, and probably loops for hanging. I've been feeling so relieved to have it done, and thinking I'll lay off of quilt-making for a while. But now that I look at the picture, I want to hand-quilt it. Soon.

The house block isn't smaller than the others; it has a flocked white strip at the bottom to represent snow on the ground.

Holy Crap! That's gorgeous. That's the best quilt ever! Get that thing quilted so we can enter it in the BQG quilt show in 2011.

Its a great quilt. I read the story on your sister's blog about how each block represents a character in the book and would love to know the symbolism behind each block.
