Treasure Island
This is one of those quilts that I believe would fall under the quote "finished is better than perfect". I call it 'Treasure Island' because first, it looks like an island floating on a black sea to me, and second it is so full of 'treasures'. The embroidery blocks are trial for new embroidery patterns...I've never known what to do with them, so I just saved them up. My DH does all the embroidery and he always does a practice. the rest of the quilt is scraps from many other quilts that I've done. It has taken over a year to finish, working on it off and on. It is king sized and has a double batting. This one is for me and I sleep in an unheated bedroom so I will soon need the warmth. Every time I look at it I think of one of the quilts that are represented here.

Gorgeous. I love what you've done. Evenly lovelier, that you share a passion with DH. So cool. I hope it keeps you nice and warm. I just want to keep looking and find new things. It sure is a treasure!
