This is my twist on the Aquamarine Ambiance quilt by Simon Haskins. I made 3 blocks, fused onto a heavy fleece, and recovered the head board in our RV with them. About 25 or so hours of machine embroidery in this, it was a lot of fun!

That's just beautiful! Isn't your bed hard to make? How do you get it smooth? Looks like you have to crawl to the top.

Hi Kathy, no just the head area with the windows is in the slide, the rest of the bed is open around the bed.

Love what you created for your headboard. I want to make that quilt one day. May have to think about it after the hours you spent on the headboard. LOL

Ok, now I have to keep self healthy enough to make all these ideas. I currently just have a hollywood bed frame, no headboard. Dang, not enough hours in a day, or years in a life. :roll:
