Oh, that is so pretty. A treasure, too.

Made me think of one that I started years ago for my Mom, but never was able to finish it and my fingers would get so stiff as I embroidered. Maybe tried too many at once. Mine is just a state bird quilt on muslin squares. I need to get it out and see what I can do.

Beautiful!

I have a package of those embroidery designs in the stash I got when my Aunt Hilda died. I believe that they were Aunt Mary's -- she was the one that embroidered.
