I was home last week for a couple of days and couldn't stay in bed cos everything hurt :-( and daytime television was absolutely woeful :shock: so I relegated my virus to the sewing room and came up with this. Now all I have to do is save up to have it quilted. I started my first free motion quilting class on Tuesday and am now busy practicing. Not game to try a quilt top yet, but know that I will get there someday!! I am now addicted to oriental fabric!! I just love it!!!! :D

Wow, if you created this while being ill, I can't imagine what you do when you are well (smile). This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
