Okay, the pattern is Frog Work by Briarwood Cottage...
This is the finished top, no quilting....

My husband, bought me a new hand quilting frame for Christmas...

So I decided, as this is a hand embroidered quilt, that it should be the first one to go on the frame... I am a bit more than half way done now, and it's progressing nicely.
I stenciled two different sized lily like flowers on the different block sizes (pieced). Over the "plain" background filling blocks I stenciled a 1.5" crosshatch. And over the embroidery I stenciled a 2.5" cross hatch. I have been removing the stencil marks as I quilt.
The quilt is about 45x50 inches overall. The quilt has NO batting, just a beautiful bamboo velour backing. - which is thick, cozy and warm all on it's own.
Quite happy with the frame, as it's fully adjustable and tiltable. I can make it go up to 140" long for quilting, so plenty of space... or size it down for smaller quilts.
