    Wow! I'd love to do that one day. I love hand quilting. This one is absolutely gorgeous. Did you mark it yourself, or buy it already marked?

    so - it looks as if your cloth was printed with a 2" grid and you're quilting it 1" apart? correct me if i'm wrong - it looks like you're quilting between blue lines too. in my wildest dreams i could never do that. i'm soooo impressed. and you're talking about finishing it in MONTHS???? i'm like another poster - if i did one like this it would be in 10 year increments.

    That is so beautiful! It already is such a timeless and elegant patttern. It will be a labor of love and I so admire you!

    Very Gorgeous!!! Wish I could hand quilt. Love the whole cloth quilts myself. Hope to see more pics of this awesome quilt in the future :)

    Did it come already marked? If you did the marking, you did a great job!! I'd never attempt to do hand quilting...like my "electric needle" method.

    Hi, Can I ask a stupid question? Do you buy the quilt with the blue pattern already on it and then hand stich or do you organise the pattern yourself? I am from Australlia (Adelaide) and I have never seen this sort of thing here!
