    Its amazing.

  3. Charlotte says:

    it's absolutely perfect!!!! That binding must have taken a while 😉

  4. kitty says:

    LOVE this baby!!!

  5. Am L says:

    It is gorgeous, as everything you labor over is bound to be beautiful. Doesn't it always start with a few late drinks?!

    I can't believe you hand sewed the binding. Fabulous job. : )

  6. Paula says:

    I love it! It really is absolutely magnificent. That's one very lucky friend you have.

  7. charlotte says:

    Wonderful! That is one big D. Love the back as well and the quilting is awesome. What will you do for entertainment now?

  8. Please, there is always time for dick jokes.

    Well done, my mind boggles when I think of how much work this entailed. I wish I had a BGFF because my BFF would never make something like this for me. *insert sad mickey face*

  9. Wow! That is a labour of love!! He must be a very special BGFF

  10. You are a wonderful friend! Amazing indeed! Lizzy's fabric works perfectly for MM…almost makes it sparkle! Any tips on piecing all those teeny tiny squares?

  11. Though I'm not a lover of the Mouse, I still think this quilt is amazing. If only for the sheer madness of a king sized quilt featuring 1½ inch squares… it makes me a little queasy just thinking about it.The star and loop FMQ is perfect. And I love that you took it to a novelty place just a little on the backing with that black & white cartoon print. And that's the truth! 🙂

  13. Such a signature piece for you, the blues sparkle on the white background; thank you for sharing the process and the magnificent finish.

  14. ~Diana says:

    It is *BEAUTIFUL*! Well done!

  15. mascanlon says:

    Why a great way to honor your BGFF. And a bow to your perfect piecing!

  16. Pat says:

    Amazing! And I love the back.

  17. Amazing finish! It is so sparkly. The star quilting design is a perfect choice and I really like the cartoon print on the back!

  18. Debbie says:

  20. Kathy says:

    What are you gonna do to top this?! Well done!

  21. Anita says:

    Beautiful! That's a lot of little pieces!

  22. Laura says:

    That's pretty awesome. But please don't stop making dick jokes. They are just too funny 🙂

  23. Auntie Pami says:

    Very nice! Zach is lucky in more ways than one.

  24. perfect! right down to the binding 🙂

  25. Jessica says:

    You and Gemma did beautiful work!! Congrats!! The photos look surreal (that's a good thing. Like from another world, that's how awesome they are).

  26. Vera says:

    Is he going to borrow it for your booth? 🙂 I can see it is huge but I would guess the squares are even smaller than 1.5" – you did a fab job!

  27. Kristy says:

    Amazing!! Love it!

  33. That quilt is positively spectacular and worth every labor pain you endured!!! Who wouldn't enjoy something this incredible…..I know several great grandchildren who would positively freak out, if their great grandmother would be crazy enough to even attempt something like this, even on a smaller scale. So happy you shared this with us!

  34. An random idea turns into an amazing artwork, stunning
