Squirrel's Quilting
Here is the last large piece of quilting I will be doing. Its a duvet cover for my bed and has finally been brought out of hiding. Sorry the main pic is a bit blurry, not much room in there to get a long shot.
The patterns on the square are all of pansies. I sort of them for their different faces and colours.

and now a closer look at some of the squares.!
Thanks for looking.

Re: Squirrel's Quilting
What a beautiful quilt you have made. I think it looks so delicate and cozy. The amount of work that you have put into making it was worth every stitch. I love it!!

Re: Squirrel's Quilting
It's beautiful Sally. I have decided to make up my embellished patchwork squares into a duvet cover. It will take a lot less work than quilting it.

Re: Squirrel's Quilting
Thank you all for your lovely comments - they are appreciated.
Athalie = that was why mine ended up as a duvet cover, too big and bulky to hand quilt.

Re: Squirrel's Quilting
Brilliant!! I'm not surprised you made it into a duvet cover....all that Quilting! It would have put me off too!
I've just thrown out my Favourite duvet cover! It was made of Patchwork....no, I didn't make it ......but it finally fell apart and wore right through at the top.....I blame D/H! His whiskers bristled the fabric right through!

Re: Squirrel's Quilting
Very pretty. Those sweet little pansy faces will give you a smile every time! ... I used to plant pansies in the winter in Virginia (snowy, around freezing much of the season) and they would bloom and be so cheerful. --Carol in Honolulu (no pansies here)
