    This one has been around for about 18 months and I kept leaving it to start something else - but it's now finished - just as the lilacs are coming into flower in the garden!
    It's the biggest I've quilted so far. I made a couple of cushions to match.

    That is absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful fabric and beautiful work. I especially appreciate the cushions - by the time I get to the end of a big project, I can never talk myself into making any accessories.

    Katrine,
    That is such a beauty!! It reminds me of some of the embroidered quilts I've seen!! I miss lilacs as they don't grow in Florida.
