Default It's finished!!

I finally finished it!!
This is the first quilt I have ever made. It's made with 20 different breast cancer fabrics and uses a pattern called "turning 20". I had so much fun making it that I have already made another one that just needs to be quilted and the binding done. I am hoping to get it finished this weekend.

I have also started a quilt for my younger daughter and it will be done with crazy animal prints. I have attached a photo of the general design so you can see what I'm talking about. It's made with 110 nine inch blocks (king size) and each square will have a small sashing piece between it and the next in black and white zebra. The back is done in a black and white zebra as well.

This is what it will look like with the sashing

And these are the stacks of strips!

My son has requested a quilt as well, in some manly camo and browns and deer fabric, so I am searching for the pattern I want to use and will start on it as soon as I finish the daughter's quilt. I have all 110 blocks sewn except for the very last strip, so I am thinking I will have it finished by Sunday if there are no hiccups this week.

Anyway, thanks for looking
