    Hi everyone!

    It took a few days, but I finally finished this quilt for one of my customers, and I just had to share one of the pictures with you! There were 12 large embroidered blocks, and she didn't want any quilting stitches to touch any embroidery stitches! I'm very happy with how it turned out, and I can't wait to see how she likes it when she comes to pick it up! I hope you all like it too! :-)

    Ha ha! Let's just not think about the "per hour" right now.....

    That's one strange thing about this type of quilting --- it's very labor intensive, and therefore takes many more hours than an overall design..... but.....I just enjoy the challenge of doing it :-) and the results of the finished quilt.
