Default My "Heirloom" Quilt - Hand-Embroidered State Flower Blocks

As some of you may remember, I put this quilt top together many months ago, but I didn't get it sent to my cousin (who does my machine quilting). I finally got it sent Monday afternoon 2/8/16, all the way to Cleo Springs, Oklahoma; my cousin received it today! Amazing that she got it that quickly. Now, I'm just waiting to get it back so I can bind it and install it, the matching pinch-pleat drapes and valance, and the matching bed skirt. In case you don't remember, I'll post the pictures again -- the ones I had previously posted. Jeanette

Love the blue fabric and what a lot of work to make those blocks. Be sure to show us after it's quilted too.

Wonderful quilt. The blue is so perfect in. Let us see all of the room setting when you post again. Sounds like a perfect room for this treasure.

It will be interesting to see how your cousin quilts it. That is a lot of beautiful embroidery.
