I made this as a gift for a family member who is an avid camper. To be honest, I don't do much appliqué, so I was a bit hesitant at first. Happily, everything went together beautifully and I had a lot of fun...even with the appliqué. Of course Ginny's how-to video provided wonderful hints and trick. I made this in a weekend and sent it off to my cousin. She loved it! Thanks Missouri Star for helping to provide the perfect gift.
