I started the Civil War Bride quilt 4 1/2 years ago - boy does time fly. I completed my 16th block some months ago but neglected to post a picture. So.....here it is. It's block #11 on the pattern - a robin and nest of eggs.
Since I've been helping care for my baby grandson, my time to spend on quilting has decreased a lot. I've been re-thinking priorities and have decided to call this quilt good with 16 blocks rather than 20. I plan to add some more applique to the first block in the first row, and a little bit of embroidery on a few of the blocks, sew it together, and start on the borders. Here's a picture of a possible layout of my blocks. Input welcome!

OMG!! This is Gorgeous Linda...wow. That's definitely an Heirloom.
Thank you Debra! I think it's time to get it set and made into a quilt. I've spent many happy hours on it - but it's time.
Wow is such an understatement, Linda! Truly a jaw dropper and an heirloom like Debra said. You are a most talented quilter. Bless your heart for being so helpful in your grandson's life. :-) What a blessing to you both, I'm sure.
