    I have made a DWR quilt before and I have just finished this one. It was done by the applique method using fine fusible interfacing, and stitching with invisible thread. It's the largest amount of hand quilting I have done.
    I embroidered the label on my Janome 10001. it looks wonky but it's not in real life.The design was not my choice and the poem was written by my son-in-law. He is best man at the wedding in July.
    I used random lengths of left over fabric all joined together for the binding.
    Hope you like it.

    I have always wanted to try this pattern but it flat out blows my mind!! At first I thought it was sold gold rings until I saw the close up. Its just so beautiful, you should feel so proud A+++.
