Beautiful! I love both the quilt and the quilt to be.
I've just ordered a quilting frame. When it arrives we will have to talk. I will need lots of guidance from the hand-quilting pros here!

P.S. How long is 'forever'?

Ruth the quilting in your Irish chain is just lovely and it would have been a humungeous job, Such patience to hand quilt a whole quilt. Love what you've done with all your 3' squares :thumbup:
