Instructions

This quilt was made using blackwork embroidery designs that I hand painted. I made the quilt finishing each block as I went along. As I was trying to stay with "my stash" the blocks alternate between background fabric and sashing. The border was a piece that I've had for a long time and this was what it was waiting for!

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting
