I am so excited to have finished this quilt top last night. It started out as a quilt my daughter was going to make for me. She abandoned it when I pointed out that she was sewing her seams at 1/2" rather than 1/4". She gets so frustrated with me when I criticize; anyone else get that from their daughters??

| Rows needing to be connected. |
I added three rows of solid fabric from the Boho line. I cut "Love," "Faith" and "Hope" from extra layer cake squares and added them to the solid rows. It's super long at over 7 feet but it'll cover hubby and me when we actually get to snuggle together on the couch.

| The words will eventually fray but that'll add to the look, I think. |
I'm going to add white borders to the sides but not the top just to make it a little wider. This quilt really will go well with our living room; we've got all of these colors represented. I can't wait to get it finished.
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins. ~ 1 Peter 4:8
