This one has been around for about 18 months and I kept leaving it to start something else - but it's now finished - just as the lilacs are coming into flower in the garden!
It's the biggest I've quilted so far. I made a couple of cushions to match.

That is absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful fabric and beautiful work. I especially appreciate the cushions - by the time I get to the end of a big project, I can never talk myself into making any accessories.

Katrine,
That is such a beauty!! It reminds me of some of the embroidered quilts I've seen!! I miss lilacs as they don't grow in Florida.
