Home from Idaho!

quilt top - not quilted yet

Here is my Sweetwater Authentic quilt top -- it's King Size.... and I haven't yet decided how I'll quilt it, but hope to have it quilted before summer so I can take it to the cottage with me. I'll post two pictures -- one, on the bed and also one just being held.
