Thought I'd share an autumn quilt I made for my folks last Christmas...came across the photos looking for something else...

Well done "dragon" - now don't go getting stuck on looking through the photos, like I do. I start to look for something and then find pictures and an hour's gone by! It's fun though, love Chris

The quilt is beautiful. Such a lot of work. Any idea where the designs came from. They are lovely. Lynx

The acorn border is from Embroidery Library, some of the autumn blocks are from the autumn leaves collection from here on Cute...the fill in blocks are from many...the blanket stitch frame in the blocks is mine and the smaller acorns that frame the focus blocks are mine...
Thank you for the information.xx

It is beautiful! How much was hand stitched?
1 comment
Well, none is hand stitched...the quilt was constructed with blank blocks then all the quilting and embroidery was done once the quilt was put together...I am still not "sold" on the quilt as you go methods...so I make the traditional quilt top and then do the quilting and embroidery...

What a beauty. That is a tremendous amount of gorgeous embroidery work. Your fabric choices go so well with the embroidery designs. You need to enter this into a quilt show or at least show it off at your local quilt guild or county fair.
