This is my current project which I have designed myself for my DH who collects clocks. Haven't decided on borders yet, measurements are, 110cm x 170cm so far. I have used machine piecing, machine applique, needle turn applique and hand embroidery. The yellow fabric was 100% cotton sheet bought from the Op Shop.

Thanks everyone, I am pleased with some parts and not so pleased with other parts of it, (still learning) I am planning on quilting in the ditch by machine for the sashings and hand quilting inside the blocks.
Big puss is called Mr McCavity, he has already knocked my ironing board over twice during the making of this quilt top, he likes on top of it coz the dogs can't get him there. Been working inside next to the log fire, as we have had so much rain and flooding, it is not nice weather out at present.

Have now added the borders, decided on a 1" dark inner border and a 5.5" outer yellow border. (yellow colour hasn't shown up very good in the pic but it's yellow alright!) For the first time ever I am going to attempt some machine quilting in the ditch and after some hand quilting in the blocks.
