When we got home I sewed the blocks together and quilted it and put the binding on the front. On the next cruise I added the flowers and leaves and hand buttonhole stitched them on and hand sewed the binding to the back. There are 20 different black and white fabrics and 20 white on white fabrics. See the dog and cat fabrics? LOL!
I only did straight line quilting on this. I loaded the quilt on the diagonal and quilted it with my channel locks for the straight line quilting.

You created a masterpiece here.
