    Other notes:
    In 2001, when I was learning to quilt, I bought this fabric to make a quilt for my son. Two years later, I spent an entire week-end at the quilting retreat cutting all the pieces to make the quilt. Finally I put the top together while in Florida in March 2009. I'm sure I did a much better job by waiting until I had a bit more experience.
