Linda, thats VERY pretty. I love to hand quilt but I hate having to deal with the batting and the backing and trying to keep it straight while I tack it down in my small house. Its easier to send it to the couple that does the machine quilting for me and pay to have it done right...PLUS they do the binding so dont know if I will ever hand quilt a large quilt again, just the lap robes or the wall hanging! I love your colors together in that quilt!
