What was your inspiration?

Christmas...I needed to make something for my siblings and I had decided to make Gator quilts for them, as they are Gator fans.

What are you most proud of?

How much each person liked the quilt I gave them.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Plan out what type of quilt you'd like to make and then go for it...and have fun in the process. A sawtooth star pattern - is really a flying geese just positioned differently...you can come up with a lot of variations on a particular type of pattern jsut by the way it is arranged on the quilt.
