I started this "simple" quilt over a year ago and finished hand quilting it last night. I love it, but wow what a lot of work.
Thanks for looking!
Smiles,
Lisa

I know when I finish a quilt there is such a sigh of relief. I have so many UFO's that I know I shouldn't start another without finishing the previous one--but I do.
Thank you for sharing your quilt with us.

Lisa...that is just Beautiful! Hand quilted...YOU GO GIRL! The colors remind me of taking a
quilt or blanket and throwing it down in lush green grass, underneath the a big old Oak Tree,
and having a lovely picnic! I haven't done that in years...but your quilt brought back a very
fond memory and one we should put back into practice. Especially with our economy the way it
is. What an in expensive and delightful afternoon picnics can be.
Blessings,

Lisa, your quilt is beautiful! I love the colors. I have several quilt tops made, but I haven't finished one yet(big sigh), someday. :)
Take care, Melissa.
