Default 1st handquilted quilt
Took me almost a year to make this. Enjoyed the process too.

Don't know if you'll be able to tell by the pictures... but I quilted the big stars in blue and the smaller ones in red.

What fun. That should wake everyone up. So far the only things I have handquilted are a couple of baby quilts. I am giving serious thought to doing a bigger quilt. Thanks for sharing.

beautiful and colorful, reminding me of a rainbow. It looks wonderful on your daybed. Congratulations, hand quilting is quite an achievement.

A treasure ... so glad you are using it -- it's why it was made!

Oh, I love the colors and the design! I'm going to try my hand at hand-quilting this year too.

It is beautiful but the fact that you enjoyed the process is the most important thing.
