Your hand quilting stitches look lots better than mine :lol:
    Thanks Patti, these stitches could be improved up on. However I suppose practice makes perfect. What lovely comments though

    Hey Patti....you know I'm bringing an empty suitcase when I go to visit her. Plus, I'm going to pop in on Izy too. Izy has such a beautiful quilt that is just laying on a bed doing nothing. :) :) :)

    Your quilt is beautiful. The watercolor center is spectacular and the swag border is outstanding. If you wanted it to be less puffy you could add some additional quilting. For someone who doesn't usually hand quilt you did a great job. Alyssa is a lucky girl.

    Thank you for all your kind words, decided enough was enough with the quilting, it was starting to wrinkle so had to give it up.
