This is for a Guild Challenge , use an inspiration , for me it was a paragraph from God's Garden by Dorothy Gurney.
It took 5 hooping's and 19 inches square, I used different colors of cream and white fabric and quilted the fabric before embroidery (Embroidery Library). The font is from 8 Claws and a Paw . Mounted in on a stretcher frame , so I can use it in a quilt at a later date.
Thanks for looking!

Absolutely stunning! You can see that a lot of work went into making it.
Bueautiful! I think I would mat and frame it, then stand it on an easel....come to think of it, I could probably find a place to put it here, but not in the garden!!!!
Oh so true i love outdoors and i hate winter:(:(Lovely work my friend

Stunning work. I love these outdoor scenes , symbol of harmony and tranquility . This will make a beautiful quilt .
That is stunning. I could see it framed and hanging on a wall.
Oh this is beautiful and wonderfully stitched out. Will be gorgeous in a quilt, but I think it would be very nice matted and framed. Nice work. Thank you for sharing this with us. --Sharon

I hope to post the quilt when and if I do it! Since this is for a guild challenge for 2016.
This is awe inspiring just as it is; as a wall hanging excellent or in a quilt!
