It is stunning, and that is quite a compliment from an SEC girl from UK.

Thanks for the nice compliments! I forgot who asked, but it only took 3-4 days to piece the top and was a lot of fun, but the Seminole border, well, let's just say I struggle with those! LOL! The first Seminole I did was on the Stars and 4-Patch for the women's shelter at Paducah last year, it had mitered Seminole borders.

I have no idea how I'm going to quilt this! I was going to just stitch-in-the-ditch on the Juki and call it a day! LOL! I haven't had practice time on my HQ16 with the rulers or doing stenciled motifs yet, don't have the control to do a pretty motif yet, looks like a first grader who can't stay in the lines! LOL! Linda had a really good idea, quilt a "G" in some of the large white areas and a UGA Bulldog in others. Do that in the large squares and a S.I.T.D. thru the chains? I'm in for it if I do that, soon as Shane and Angie see it done all UGA, then I'll have to make another one! Those two are gung-ho UGA fans! If they had their way their whole house would be Bulldog decor! ROFLOL!

kadie!!!! ROFLOL! Use it for rags, my fanny, girlfriend! You keep your roo-paws off my quilt, especially that Seminole border! ROFLOL!

Oh I know, that kadie-roo is a mess! It's a full-time job trying to keep her in line! LOL! Good thing for her I love her to pieces or she'd be in trouble right now! I ain't scared of those pink boots and roos! ROFLOL!
