The hand quilting took a little more time. 24" square. I think it will make a great table center.

    Beautiful! Love how you coordinated and placed your fabrics.

    Very pretty and I love the inside especially. Is that what they call swoon blocks? Sue

    I think you might be referring to my Swoon post from a couple of weeks back. I love the way you have quilted yours and your color combination is great!
