And proud you should be. It’s a lovely quilt. Love the color and design and to hand quilt it, no less, is over the top!

Nice anniversary quilt.

Regarding pattern😊
 
G I used a star pattern from Jenny Beyer and I got the double heart embroidery pattern from embroidery design. I just put them together there was no pattern. 😊

Very elegant. The use of machine embroidery and then hand quilting is an excellent use of your array of skills.

leighway 05-29-2019 10:46 AM

Really lovely work!! Did you use a variegated thread on the embroidery?

My husband was very pleased with it so now I think I will try some pillow shams to match. I machine embroideries the plain squares and machined stitched the star blocks. Then hand quilted it. Kinda a proud of myself. 😊

Very, very nice. The largest quilt I've ever made is 120" x 108". It was quilted by the end of January and is still awaiting binding!
