    That's what I see too! And if you turn it upside down, you see a river running into a forest. :)

    Also, from the photos, it looks handquilted in the front, but no quilting on the back??

    The quilting runs thru to the back of it. The thread matches pretty well.
    Here's a closeup of the back........


    back...the thread matches perfectly

    Front....you really have to look hard to see the stitches. I could barely see them, they blend in so well.

    Oh my goodness that is so gorgeous! I'm in awe of the hand quilting, my quilt from Panda is the same, tiny little stitches that are so amazing.

    And ditto on the labels... they're perfect! :-)

    Oh my goodness mine has arrived!! I figured being at the bottom of the world I'd be last!

    I'm flat out trying to get Maxine's quilt finished in a hurry, so apologies for the not good photos. The quilt is actually a deep purple background, just gorgeous (purple is one of my favourites), and as above, beautifully hand stitched.

    Please pass on my thanks youme.... it's gorgeous and I'm thrilled! :-)





    The background is a deep purple, it's gorgeous!
