I have enough squares left to make a runner for my dresser. Not selling this one.

Is there anyone else that makes this type of quilt - I would like to hear what designs you use.
Not machine embordiery, but I did make a king-size 'Windblown' Sunbonnet Sue using hand applique' & hand embrodiery...took me quite a while as well. I show it here folded in 4ths and laying on a queen-size bed in the pics below. Probably won't make another one...
