I made this quilt, also. Took my time with the hand embroidery, probably over a period of two years. Still working on the quilting, free motion on my domestic machine. I just work on it in between other projects. I love how this one turned out! The stitching and your quilting is just perfect! Sure wish I had seen yours before I started mine. I did do the micro stippling in the background of some of my blocks, though, and really like. Had a little trouble with ideas for some of the more open areas and love how you did this. Btw. I used Cosmos embroidery floss, as recommended by Crabapple Hill, the designers of the pattern. Thanks for sharing this.
