This is the top that I pulled out and finished up. The blocks were made in 1997 when I belonged to an online quilting group called Quilt Bees. They had a block exchange based by first names of the members so many Marys exchanged and then Sues and then Janes, etc and no Dianas came forward. Finally a few Dianas came out and then Dianes and we exchanged blocks. They have been sitting in a little box since then, last year some time I put them into a top and then the other day I quilted. Just a simple daisy overall as I didn't have time for anything else. It's done except for binding.
I sure hope the other Dianas didn't wait so long to finish. It was fun to read the names and where they were from but I did have a hard time just quilting over the applique blocks. There is a Sun Bonnet Sue in the middle so a good friend of mine would say its a perfect quilt...done is perfect too.

Very cool. It looks like both Diana's (you and me) finished very old UFO's we started in the early 90's and posted about them on the same day....weird, BUT TRUE!
LOL
Done is very cool and it's a pretty quilt too! I really like the quilting you did on this.
Having it "done" is wonderful! I really like your "simple daisy" overall quilting!
