I agree with you on embroidery being fun. When I started make quilt tops it was not long and I wanted to get into the embroidery so bought a machine that you can sew and embroidery. I love placing embroidery into my quilts. My next project to learn is applique. I have problems also with them wanting to pucker which makes me so made. However I have learned once the quilt is quilted it really looks good. Now sure what the quilter does but she performs a miracle on several of mine.

Very pretty and I love those hummingbirds!

Exceptional! I just love the whole thing!!!

Wow what a beautiful quilt. I just love that you used the hummers for the design on the blocks. Who wouldn't smile seeing those. You are such a sweet person to make this for someone that needs to be cheered up an get better. Great Job! You go girlfriend~!!

I love hummingbirds, too. In Tucson, the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum has a walk-in hummingbird aviary. Once, when my hair was longer, I was in the aviary watching the birds, when I heard buzzing, and several people said, ''Stand still,' so I did. Then I felt tugging on my hair. I was standing in a ray of sunlight, and one of the hummers wanted a strand of my hair for its nest!
