I think it's a lovely design for a wholecloth
 

On September 15th I have started to hand quilt a new wholecloth. It's always fascinating to see how the design develops from step to step...
The finished quilt will have a size around 74" x 74". It's my own design, derived from a diamond brooch I found a picture of in the internet. I think it's really loveley.

Holy Moly!!!

Those designs are STUNNING!!!!

Beautiful!

WOW - that's going to really be a stunner! Love your design.

Hand quilting so beautifully amazes me......... but your design..... WOWSERS ...... stunning. I look forward to viewing the finished piece!

Wow beautiful and you are good

OMG, I am so amazed! It's stunningly beautiful. You are indeed an artist.

very nicely done... isn't it great to create your own design!

Amazing work, but when looking at the picture of the entire work, in the upper right corner, it looks like batting only, is there no backing material? I'm confused by this, and fascinated!

beautiful, just beautiful and to think it is your own design..you are very talented

Ditto what everyone said, I woud never have the patience to even do something small !!!

Your handwork is AMAZING!!!

Talent doesn't even begin to describe the gift you have. It's such a treasure to get to see what you create. Thank you for sharing with us.

Stunning is all I can say

Could you do a tute on how you do those stitches? They don't appear to be just a straight quilting stitch. Also another tute about how you do a design.

Beautiful hand quilting I love the pattern you have chosen Thanks for sharing your talent.
