When you click on the photo again it enlarges it and the details really show through. I love the quilting you did on this. The lillies are beautiful too. Wonderful heirloom quality. Make sure you have this quilt appraised. It is quite valuable $$$ wise with all the stitching. I'm a quilter with a friend who appraises quilts I know what I'm talking about in this one area.
