..........well all bar the label that is!
Bulls eye rough edge blocks but rearranged into curvy stripes and surrounded by a thick plain border and the balance of the leftover blocks interspersed with a few appliqued small circles
I then quilted between the rough edge quadrants but it was a little puffy so ended up with wiggly lines of continuous loops along the centre of each of them - quilting over rough edges is a little tricky but I did itAll it needs now is a label on the back and it's ready to take that journey across the UK to Hatfield this Saturday - I hope she can feel all those hugs stitched into it if she gets the odd pang of homesickness - but with a bit of luck she will be so busy they will be few and far between :o)

Oh Anne, that is just gorgeous. Did Sarah have a part in the design process? I don't envy you taking her away - I find it so terribly hard to "let go". It's good to see you blogging again .... care to share you list of books that you've read?
It is absolutely gorgeous! I just love it!!
What a terrific quilt, such an unusual design. I'm sure she'll love every minute that she snuggles under it - and it's bound to save on the heating bills too!
What an amazing quilt. Wishing Sarah loads of luck and love for Uni!!!
Very pretty - good luck for Saturday.

Oh your uni quilt is wonderful! I never thought to make one like that! I love it!
Fabulous - thanks for showing it! Pleased that it has just a few applique circles on it!
Hope your daughter loves it - I'm sure that she will.
Wow, what a totally unique quilt. Fantastic job you did there, and with all the love stitched in, all the warmer it will be :) Congrats to your Uni student, best wishes for success in her first year.
It is beautiful and bound to be a comfort from home.
Anne that is beautiful. I'm sure she will feel all the love that went into it.
A wonderful quilt. Truly a Bebbs masterpiece. Best of luck for tomorrow. Will be thinking of you.

Wow, I love the way you set those blocks together, Anne!!
You always come up with interesting patterns and this one is great ... as usual!
Sarah will love it and the one thing I love about quilts is the tactile feel of the fabric. When she touches it, she will know that a lot of love went into the making of her quilt.
