    GrandmaBonnie sent me this quilt.
    This was a huge quilt and it took me two days to quilt...(that's why there was no picture yesterday)

    I didn't really have to read this quilt per se....I did alot of fill in work to make all the designs pop out.
    I stippled throughout the center so that the designs would pop out..and I pebbled in the black fabric with vines so the vines would raise out. I quilted a wavy crosshatch in the four-patches and a simple outlined in the green. IN the border I simply just used the two types of leaves that were in the border fabric and mimiced them in a design to cover it...I think it looks great! It is a beautiful quilt and it is a mammoth ..I can't get a full picture on my King Size bed as it hangs over.Beautiful peicing..no issues...Great gal to work with!

    I quilted this freehand on my INNOVA. No computer or pantograph quilting.

    Thank you for looking!

    obviously some thrads need to be cut still...lol

    Glad you're starting to get some relief with your teeth.
