i made this for my MIL over 11 years ago.
she has it hanging in her dinning room
she seems to love it;
says she gets lots of compliments on it;
i love to hand embroidery and hand quilt among other needlework.

Are the designs flowers of the month? I have a quilt top done by one of my grandmothers with blocks embroidered with flowers of the month. I'll have to take it out and repair it.
