I have been working on this since June 11th it's coming along but i'm doing it all by hand this time so it's going kinda slow.....This is my first one all by hand...what do you think? This is all I have so far, it's for a queen bed so I think I have much more to add yet.


Donna

it is beautiful.. i wish my wrist would let me do handwork.. its all i can do is to attach things to a quilt top..
can't wait to see this done.. take your time..it will all be worth it !

You're doing a great job. I love the diamonds. I'll have to try than on my next one.

looking good

You are going fast. It looks really beautiful!

great work! I'm planning on doing one soon so I really enjoyed your post. Gives me courage to begin!

Your quilt so far is simply amazing!! You have done quite a bit in just over a month.

I love it... all those white borders really make those diamonds pop..... slow and steady wins the race!!!! Great job...

It's beautiful, Donna. I am working on one by hand too and am enjoying it-it's easy piecing with the small size although I'm just doing individual flowers so far! I love the bright colors and the layout.

beautiful :-)

I love your diamonds. You are moving right along. My mom made a diamond one that I am copying but mine won't be done for another 10 years or more. Yours will be beautiful!

Great work! This is fantastic!

Beautiful, great job.

Wonderful job!

Wow thats awesome

Love the diamonds. Have never seen one like that.

I think it is a lot of work! You are doing a beautiful job.

Very pretty

Wow you have a lot done so far. Will you hand quilt

That is very pretty. I started one with the intentions of doing a queen size quilt. My arm and shoulder started bothering me from doing it so much that I had to stop. So I had enough hexies done to make twelve rosettes (19 in each). I am machine appliqueing each flower to a 14 inch white on white square. I am doing quilt as you go so doing one block at a time. It will be big enough when I am finished to make a good size crib quilt.

Blessings!

Nice job, I am also doing a 'grandmother's flower garden' by hand and it is taking me a very long time. A good traveling project.
Will post what i have done so far.

Are you kidding me? You must be the faster sewer in the land. Those babies take some time. They're gorgeous!

Slow? I don't think so!! You're doing great! Beautiful!

That is going to be one beautiful quilt.

Very nice. It's nice to see work that is being done hand.

its very pretty

It will be a gorgeous quilt. I can't imagine doing that all by hand. Good for you.

Love it! Amazed you have so much done already!!

wow, I'm impressed with how quickly you're getting this done! And it's so beautiful...your piecing is great! Looking forward to seeing it when it's completed. It will be a treasure for sure.

Keep up the good work. It's lookin' good!
