That is breathtakingly beautiful.

Beautiful!

I agree with Dorothy. This is just intriguing that you hand quilt to such beautiful and intricate work. Everything seem so well executed. You are a talented lady.

mpspeedy, she isn't signed on right now so she will tell us later but in another post she was also asked this and she said she does it freehand and 'it just comes natural' to her. What a gift huh! I love her work.

That is hard to believe. That work is awesome!

Absolutely gorgeous! Please post pictures of your other quilts! I want to see them all!

I also enjoy the slow rhythm of hand piecing and hand quilting...but I still have a couple questions to throw out here at you...

Are you using a frame when you quilt or do you work in your hands...? If you use a frame, may we see it?

And two, would you mind walking us through how you hand mark your tops before layering and quilting. I have seen it done many different ways, and would particularly enjoy hearing how you get it to all line up.

Wonderful design...so well balanced and rich.
Not often I get to see such fine work done by hand.
Thank you for enriching our minds with the view of this beauty.
