Wow, it is beautiful. As an avid cross stitcher I know what kind of time and work went into your blocks. I love Paula Vaughan's patterns. I have done a few but still have lots of her patterns that I want to do.... Someday. I'd almost be afraid to put them into a quilt, I wouldn't want anything to ruin my needlework. It's funny, I am an absolute perfectionist when it comes to my cross-stitch and I only work on one project at a time, (for the most part) but with quilting, I am not quite the perfectionist and I have (ahem) a few (15 or so) in the works. Great Job!!!!

That's wonderful Mary!! I actually HAVE that cross stitching book myself! LOL I haven't done any of the patterns in it... one of those 'for the future' things. Awesome that you took it one huge step further! :)

Beautiful quilt! I recently put together 12 block x-stitch disney character quilt. A co-worker had x-stitched all the blocks and asked if I would make it into a quilt for a gd. I sashed it in pastel greens, pinks and yellow. I machine quilted it because my hand quilting was to small to deal with all the small openings in the x-stitch fabric. It turned out great. Keep us posted on the hand quilting. I would like to know how it goes for you. What a wonderful piece of art you have created! Thanks for sharing.
