My husband, bought me a new hand quilting frame for Christmas...

So I decided, as this is a hand embroidered quilt, that it should be the first one to go on the frame... I am a bit more than half way done now, and it's progressing nicely.

I stenciled two different sized lily like flowers on the different block sizes (pieced). Over the "plain" background filling blocks I stenciled a 1.5" crosshatch. And over the embroidery I stenciled a 2.5" cross hatch. I have been removing the stencil marks as I quilt.

The quilt is about 45x50 inches overall. The quilt has NO batting, just a beautiful bamboo velour backing. - which is thick, cozy and warm all on it's own.

Quite happy with the frame, as it's fully adjustable and tiltable. I can make it go up to 140" long for quilting, so plenty of space... or size it down for smaller quilts.

really cute. good luck with the frame.

Thanks everyone. I'm really enjoying it.

Oh, I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished quilt! It so cute!

an adorable quilt

Awesome!!!!!

I've fallen in love with those froggies! And the setting blocks and colors are wonderful. I'm sure we all want to see it again when it's quilted - have fun doing it with your new toy ...

That is so Cute!!!!! Can't wait to see it finished!

nice... love the frogs....

Your froggies are fantastic! and nice gift from your DH ..... he knows how to please you! Have you used a quilt frame for hand quilting before? How long does it take for you to quilt?

I'm crazy about stars! I love green! I love frogs! So -- I love your quilt. And I've never seen anything like your setup before. It's wonderful! You have a great husband!!

This is adorable. Love the fabrics and of course the frogs. Heck I just love everything about this quilt. Like everyone else I can't wait to see the finished quilt. BrendaK

I love it too! I hand quilt and I wish I had the space for a frame like that. Looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.

I hadn't before. Id used hoops, this is entirely new. I love it. I'm now about 70 percent do. And at I about a week Its crib sized though..m so its not taking long

The frames not to big. As bug as the quilt. Can be as small as about 4 feet. I don't really have the space. I just make it work.

That is so very nice.

It's coming along great!
