I hope i didn't mislead anyone but this quilt is machine embroidered and quilted on a long arm. It took me 5 years because i was doing quilting for other people. I finally got time to get it done.

It's still beautiful, and I bet you ran the machine that did the embroidery. It's absolutely amazing work! Nice to have a good piece for yourself once in a while!

Make sure you put a label on it and document it with your family papers etc. Your family will want to pass it down to future genertions. What a wonderful heirloom piece.

Yes it was my embroidery machine. I am working on a label now. Thank you everyone for the kind words.

That is just beautiful, my mother-in law gave me a cross stitch quilt to sew and put togather, that has been over 15 years ago, I have about half of it done--just always find something else to do. My MIL is gone --she will never get to see the finished project. MN Quiltlady

What a beautiful work of art. It is worth all the years you put into it.
