Phew


Look at the simple piecing.  I figured this would take me about a month, maybe two if I took my time.  5 months!  The crooked bandanas?  I was trying to wash out the dye smell and make the fabric less stiff.  100% cotton in hot water.  I am not laundry proficient!  But I learned my lesson.  From there, things just kept going wrong.  But I am so happy it's done!

It's got flaws throughout, most of which I was able to hide.  I was going to take some better pictures, but forgot before it was time to pack it up and mail it off to my step-mother-in-law.  I really hope she likes it!  At least enough to line a stall with it, if need be.  I really need to sharpen my skills.
