Some of my intersections were weak and close to the edge of pulling apart...this is to keep it strong and to keep the batting from bearding out too

It is really beautiful. But it is also lots of work, especially your hand sewing.
Enjoy it.

Just Beautiful... I like the little tip on using the pellon for extra support of the seams.
