What can we say, but THAT'S A LOVELY QUILT! I haven't any idea what those special techniques are even called, much less how you do them. The result is absolutely stunning!

This looks more like dream quilt, than a crazy quilt. "mommy, mommy, please I always dream of wanting a quilt like that." Your quilt is so outstanding, it is beyond words. You have a talent for beauty and art. I am pleased you shared it with us.

This is just too lovely!! Is this machine embroidery? If so, where did you end the pattern? Your choice of colors and fabrics is spot on......and the quilting......I could go on and on.......

I have attached pictures of my quilt. It is my own design and I did all of it on my Pfaff 2144. I embroderied iris on the blocks and did a lot of 3-D blocks and used many of the built in stitches too. I am very proud of this quilt.
