Finished!!
The top is finished!! I scrolled back to see when I started and it was Jan 25 that I posted the photograph I would be working with. It has been a long process but I am quite pleased with the way it turned out. You can click on the tag Mt Goats to go back to the beginning. At this point it measures 39 x 45″.
Several hours were spent yesterday just removing the freezer paper from the back. I am eager to get started on the quilting which will change and enhance it, but realistically, I must put it aside for now as it’s deadline is not until August and I have more pressing things to deal with – like taxes!
Thanks all of you who have hung in there throughout the process and especially those of you who posted. It’s been fun!

I really enjoyed watching this develop. thank you for sharing. I think you should put all the photos into a video on fast speed. It would be fun to watch,

Ruth, It has been a very informative process for me. I particularly was interested in how and why you selected the fabric you did. Fabric choice is so important, but I have a very, very difficult time with it. My stash is too small! I need to shop, shop, shop. 😉 Thank so much.

Looks great, Ruth!!! Thanks for taking the time to photo journal and explain your method. Just when I thought it looked good, you would point out a way to change it for the better…. that really helps with the learning process. Hope it’s a winner down the road. Gwynette

Just fabulous and worth all the work! I bet you learned a lot about values doing this. It’s a great piece and I enjoyed seeing the process.
