I used a stencil, and rulers to do my design.
It's cream cotton fabric with a darker cream thread. The stitching in the middle of the flower and the borders is a micro stipple stitch on my machine. Much more mind numbing than doing the cross hatch!

I also did lots of practice with FMQ.

Thanks everyone for the kind words ... I did a Ton of practicing my FMQ on smaller wholecloth quilts before I even thought of doing this! It's been on my bucket list for ages, and now I can finally cross it off!
I am however, going to do others, just need to get the pattern in my head and then onto fabric!
