    Just finished this one to put in my chair in my sewing room. I wanted to take one quilting motif and use it in different ways throughout the quilt, and I'm pretty pleased with the results. All hand-quilted--and it took FOREVER!

    Here's the main quilting motif. In some spots I just used 3/4 of it (like in the setting triangles)

    Here's the whole quilt. Pretty simple.

    Wonderful - I admire anyone that can hand quilt. I hope one day to do it maybe once I retire.

    I am glad you have made something for yourself to enjoy. We often neglect to reward ourselves with our own work. You did a beautiful jpb on your quilting.
