hello again... this is another quilt in which i cannot keep!!!! this is for my boyfriends parents! i love how fast this was to make (i made the top in one day on a serger) so here it is!





here is the full blanky!


i couldnt figure out how to add the tassels to the inside without chopping them off w/ the serger lol...so i added the buttons and looped the tassels around them.. i like it better anyways so haha tassels!




let me know what you think and thanks for looking!

I posted a serger question on the other board last week.  What serger stitch did you use to make the top?  Is it an overedge stitch?

The quilt is awesome!  You did a great job.
