    I finally finshed this little quilt top up. The hand embrodery took me longer than I expected it to. But that's ok, it is a large crib size, I think they used to call them six year?? I wanted it to be on the long side anyway.

    I will put it aside for it's quilting in the stack I have started. Here is three pics of it.


    Sorry about the angle

    Now how cute it that? You do such lovely work! I'm kind of partial to the name Myrtle. That's what my dad calls me! You've done the "Myrtles" proud!

    Oh Thanks so much Chele! I try and do the best I know how to do so that I grow with each project. Your dad calls you myrtle?? That's cute! My dad used to call me muscles. (skinny kid) LoL!

    Thanks beachlady. I kind of like pink and green together.

    That is so cute. What a lot of work went into that. Someone is going to be very lucky to get that.

    LoL littlehud ... Thanks, it is for my granddaughter. She is at the grade where they read myrtle turtle in school.

    Thanks ever so much sewjoyce. I took this apart three times and re-worked it. I got tired of trying to figure out how to set it. It made for a long day.

    amma ... I was really looking ot finish it. So glad I finally did! Thanks for you sweet comments.
