I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. The colors aren't colors that I probably would have chosen, but that is one of the fun things of making quilts for other people...you do things that are different than what you normally do.
I'm happy that most of the points came together correctly. There are a few points that are off but not too many. I clipped most of them with the binding, but decided that could be a design feature.

I quilted my first pantograph on it. I need to get better at doing edges, but the middle went really well. My favorite heart is below...it ended up placed just perfectly.
This is currently hanging up in the rehab room with Grandma, but she's super excited to get it home and to its real location.
