    Beautiful!!! I love hand embroidery in quilts.

    What stitch did you use for the little bird?? I did one in an outline stitch and it looks terrible lol!

    Wow! Your quilt is so pretty. And the blanky is perfection. And the bibs are so pretty too. Your quilting is also. What else can I say? Love them

    All I did was my quilting outline stitch. And it doesn't look too bad. I am not very good at hand quilting but I done my best. Still working on making shorter stitches.

    That's beautiful work. I have a quilt just like that and I love it. Just waiting for a great grand daughter to give it to.
