    I started the quilting on this quilt the end of November of last year. It is all hand quilted. Last night I put the last stitches in the body of it.

    It still needs to be trimmed, bound, labelled and washed.

    When those things are done I will post pictures of front and back.

    But for now...here's what I took last night. This thing is HUGE! I guess I didn't need to add the 4" to each side that I added...LOL.

    wow, amazing job. I love it! I don't know if I could be that dedicated to hand-quilting a masterpiece like that.

    A whole cloth quilt is where the top is a solid piece of plain cloth and the "design" is the quilting.

    It is absolutely gorgeous! Hand quilting (at least once) is on my bucket list.
