Thank you everyone for all of your comments yesterday (and the day before) I am so behind in getting back to anyone. I have been so hyper focused on getting this done I have been falling down on other important jobs, like saying thank you!
I filled the entire foyer yesterday and was able to sew almost all the pieces together by midnight.
It was a beautiful day yesterday so I had to get my 6 miles in and take a short break on the hammock...the shoes made me do it! I felt like such a slacker with so much sewing still to do!!!!
The finished top!!!!! It took two people and hanging it over the deck to get a photo :o) I am not sure how to get a pic of a big quilt and for it to look good,LOL! I really did not intend for it to be so big ( 78x87) but I LOVE it!!!!!
Rachel at Stitched in Color added some more prizes to the awesomeness for Scrap Attack. You still have time to make a pillow, a mini or something else to link up!

Just think of the dreams you could have under that thing!
So beautiful! I rarely use white but when I see how fabulous it looks in a quilt like yours, I feel the urge to run out and buy a few bolts!
I am also a runner. One of my next projects (I hope) is to make a small bag with tons of pockets to keep all my running "stuff" (iPod, ear buds, watch, phone, etc). Actually, I just read your "About Me" and other than the # of kids / grandkids, I tihnk we may be twins! :-)
Returning to the quilt... are you going to quilt it yourself?
wow I love this!!!Congrats on the 6 miles. That is 1 mile over my limit. But I'm working towards six :)
Hmmm ... I run only to my sewing room. Your quilt is going to be amazing! I brought to my mind a huge cross stitching! It's very beautiful! Happy weekend! x Teje
This is so creative! Thanks for sharing!
The nice weather can distract,but in a good way of course:)
I love what you have done with this! A true reward for your six miles!!
I love the way you placed those lovely blocks!
That quilt top is awesome! I love how you decided to set the blocks. I have been toying with starting a Tokyo Subway quilt and I love your take on it. Very purty.
It really does look great!! Can't wait to see it in person!
I just love it!
It really is just lovely! Seriously, bright, cheery, fun....perfect!
I love this quilt, it is wonderful!
So awesome! I love the layout! Plus I'm such a sucker for anything color spectrum. :)
It's just beautiful! Great job! :o)
Congratulations. What a stunner! I love your layout and all that negative space. Thanks for adding it to the festival!
this is just so so very cool. I've never seen courthouse steps done quite like this before- love it!
I like your quilt! Nice use of colors.
What quilt pattern will you use?
I love quilts with white as the "majority" color - and this quilt is stunning!!
This is incredible! Great job.
Yay for embracing the random! It looks fab :oD
Your quilt top is amazing, i love your design :o)
It's beautiful! Love the design.
very cool, it has a great balance of color and negative space. lovely work.
When I saw the photograph of your quilt, the first thing I thought of was hourglasses. I don't suppose that's what you had in mind, but I like the quilt (or the top, anyway).
Oh I love your courthouse steps quilts, such a great idea to use up scraps. Thanks for sharing.
