Delft Blue bed spread.
At last it is finished! I wanted it to look like an old fashioned tiled wall. It has 252 embroidered corners and 32 bigger patterns.
I am quite pleased with the result.

Beautiful!!! My Mom would have loved this :) It kind of gave me an idea for a project for myself. I've alway wanted to make myself a Dovet Cover. Never occured to me when I am able to make one to do embroidery on it until now!!!!

Each square took me one and a half hour to get the corners on. Then about 40 minutes per big pattern. (Measuring all squares and sewing it together) Lots of hours!

It looks lovely and I like Delft Blue tiles. Great job!
Reminded me of something. When we lived in Ewell we often took a walk in nearby Nonsuch Park. Nothing remaining from Henry VIIIs time. But the public conveniences (at least the ladies) were walled with old Delft Blue tiles - the genuine article, with nice corners and lovely small designs. Wonder if they are still there, it would be such a shame if they should have been vandalised.

this is just wonderfull to look at.
It is so crisp and fresh and would be a joy to use and show off.
this is a great way to use two kingsized flat sheets for a double bed (or two doubles for a single size) One sheet to cut for the top blocks and the other as the backing
e for the top quilt blocks and one for the backing. All it needs now is a nice big matching pillow sham. and that can be done with the left over fabric.
well done it is very inspirational.

You have done an amazing job, My mother had a wall tiled with antique dutch tiles by the fire. This looks very real. Now enjoy all your hard work
