Remember when Bernie and I got married you girls showered us with red fat quarters. Bernie picked red and white for our wedding quilt as red and white were our wedding colors and the color of Poland. He was able too pick out the pattern and was able to see several of the blocks made. It is now finished - all 100 x 110 inches of it, all hand quilted. Thank you again for all of the love you showed us. Bernie was flabbergasted that we received FQs from all over the world. I used the left overs of the FQs to patchwork the backing.

It turned out wonderful. I love the green grass and yellow flower setting you chose for the picture.
