It took a lot of time to hand sew every puff to the backing to stabilise it and I had to use restoration netting on quite a few of the puffs that had started to fray and disintegrate.

I hope she likes the job I have done when she collects it.

The quilt is on a king sized bed so must have taken a lot of time and energy to make.... I think it is absolutely beautiful.

The first photo is before stabilising.
