It is finished!!!! (Sarah's quilt)




I did it!! With the help of several people, I finished Sarah's wedding quilt yesterday. We gave her her bridal shower today and I was able to watch her unwrap it!! I felt like I had just given birth to this thing, since I started it 9 months ago. :) Thank you Lance for voluntarily taking the kids to Iowa for a weekend so I could work on it. Thank you Annette for your quilting knowledge and help with the embroidery and binding! Thank you church ladies for your encouragement and the tiny bit of green fabric I thought I had but didn't. It's done! She really liked it, too. :)
