Well here she is, my Floral Beauty top is finished. I can honestly say I have loved sewing every stitch of this quilt, it is a beautiful pattern.
Now I have to find just the right backing fabric so I can start hand quilting.
I'm really excited to see it finished, but also a little sad that all that needle turn appliqué is done.
Mr 12 is due home from his Canberra excursion tonight, and Mr 16 is heading off on his school ski trip on Sunday, so lots of excitement, unpacking and packing here. I hope you get some sewing time over the weekend.

What a gorgeous quilt Susan, you must be so pleased with it:)
ReplyDeleteWow Susan, it looks amazing! I can understand the mixed emotions on finishing. At least you will have the pleasure of quilting it once you find that perfect backing backing. Hope your boys have (or have had) a great time on their adventures.
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful Susan. Will take a while to do the hand stitching I imagine. Hugs.......
ReplyDeleteYou have been a little bit quiet so I knew there was something wonderful going on. Congratulations, it is beautiful.
