This is a quilt made jointly by my mother and me. I did the hand embroidery blocks and my mother hand-pieced the patchwork blocks and hand-quilted it. This pattern is Playmates by American Jane. I fell in love with this redwork pattern when I saw it at the Houston International Quilt Festival a few years back.

Beautiful. Well done to both of you.

So very cute. I love redwork

WOW!!! You both do gorgeous handwork D:D:D

That is absoluty gorgeous! I have quite a collection of redwork patterns..antique etc. You have inspire me to do some redwork...I can only do those while watch tv or waiting for something tho lol...what fabric did you use for the background...

That is a beautiful quilt, so much work put into it.

oh wow, what an awesome job. i like how you stitched on the pre quilted muslin.

The stitching was done on a cotton fabric with flannel underneath so the red threads would not show through and then my mother hand quilted after the entire quilt was assembled.

The embroidery was done on a 100% cotton fabric - perhaps Kona, but honestly I am not sure. I used flannel underneath so the red threads would not show through when going from one point to another.

Love it! May I ask what kind of embroidery stitch you used?
