My completed project!!

Here it is...my finished project for my Bestie's birthday....She can't get it until she tells me she saw it on my blog..

     I hadn't planned on something so large, but it just took on a life of its own once I started.  The center block is "Dublin Steps" to remind her of our trip to Ireland.  Other blocks relate to her...the books (she is a librarian), the bug jars with cherries (she has been with me throughout the cherry fabric hunt), she has a viking sewing machine and her favorite thread is Sulky.  I hope she likes it.  I thoroughly enjoyed creating it for a special person... Now on to other b-day gifts for my other special friends.
