Very beautiful! Your Mom did a wonderful job on the cross stitch. I love the iris quilting too.

Practice, practice and more practice. You will notice I didn't give you any close ups. I am still working on getting my stitches even and there are a few other mistakes.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. I can't wait to get it done and delivered. :D

That is just beautiful. The embroidery is also wonderful.
Have you ever tried using a large print on the back and quilting from the back around the motifs on that print. It gives the front a unique look and sure saves marking.

Hi sewsewquilter. How can you have a fear of FM when you can do work like that :?: That is awesome :!: Your Mom deserves a bit of praise too for making the cross-stitch blocks. They are beautiful!! Absolutely gorgeous quilt all the way.
