    That's a really beautiful quilt. Many hours of work in that but well worth it.

    Jacquie, and others who have asked about back-basting applique - it is a little hard for me to explain, but there is a great tutorial here -

    I adore appliqued quilts and yours is stunning! I would never be able to put that on a bed as my cats would have no respect for such beauty and would just fur it up.

    Exquisite! Some day I am going to attempt something like this. I guess I should start with simple applique, though, huh?
    Can you enter it into a fair or a show?
