@Kachina624 , here is a sneak peak at this year’s quilt project.  I have just started the border which you see at the bottom section of the quilting frame.  

 

I am debating whether I will finish this before the garden gets going.  I have been crazy busy these past couple of months and I am planning a trip in the next ten days.  I could put it away until late Fall or put a drive on and get it done now.  I hate unfinished projects.

 

Pinch out for a closer look.  LM

Beautiful!

 

Your stitching is perfection.  You must be very patient.  

 

Is it a large quilt or wall hanging?  Either way, it is lovely.

@Witchy Woman , it is large.  I usually do one each winter.  I enjoy it and it is a good way to keep occupied through the winter months.  I will post when it is done.  I like the borders on this one.  They mimic clouds in a blue sky.  LM

@Lilysmom  That is beautiful! I love quilts. Between your gorgeous gardens and your exquisite quilting you are very talented. I enjoy the photos of both very much. It makes me wonder if you have an artistic background or education. I'll bet you are eager for gardening season to start. How long is the growing season in Nova Scotia? I wonder if it is similar to where we are in northern Illinois. Our last frost is usually around May 9th or 10th.

@Lilysmom  Wow! It's beautiful. My grandma used to make quilts and my mom loved to sew but I did not inherit their talent.

Well, @Lilysmom  you've outdone yourself this year.  It is drop-dead gorgeous!   Are you going to keep this one for your own use?  I love the colors in it.
