This is a lovely project Sqdancer! My aspirations are to something like this one day.

Certainly isn't as difficult as some of the pieced quilts, all the designs are embroidered, but it was still a challenge...Give it a try elenu...
I have a lot of learning to do yet Sqdancer, but I will try . . one day.

This is a beautiful quilt, sqdancer. Many hours of work. Giving a quilt to someone is such a pleasure, it makes all the hours spent on it worth while. *4U

Beautiful - I love to sew but have never made a quilt. It looks like it is hard to do. Getting everything all lined up and straight. Great Job. Sue

Not really hard sue actually the on point is probably easier that the straight across would be...

Thank you gerry...My daughter chose the colours she wanted...the first one I made in this design was in pale peach shades for a raffle for our square dance convention in 2006 and my daughter liked it so much she asked me to forget about birthdays and christmas and just make her the quilt, she didn't care how long it took...so I wasn't pressured or on a deadline...
When do we get to see the peach quilt?

Beautiful quilt sqdancer. How big are the embroidered blocks and is the candlewicking difficult? I am about to begin a queen bed quilt for a wedding gift which I am attending in the UK in August, I live in Australia. I had better get a move on otherwise they may end up with embroidered towels.

Yes I realize that I made the quilt in 2006 but they have changed the mattress on their bed and I needed to extend the sides - there is another posting further down that explained !!!

It's gorgeous! Now that I can see the top of it and the picture of how she decorated her room around this quilt - she has an awesome room now - could go in a magazine!

This is so beautiful, I loved the way you stripped it. Is this medallions in each block?
