Default Well, I finally finished.......

this 2 1/2 year labor of love for my youngest grandchildren. It has 30 machine embroidered blocks telling the story of the Night Before Christmas. There are over 2 million embroidery stitches in this quilt.
It is my very first completed quilt, so needless to say, it was a learning curve. I quilted it on my embroidery machine which was a challenge, but, all in all, I am pretty proud of it. Can't wait to take it to the kids in Florida in December. Thanks for looking.
