Wildflowers Quilt.....Under the Needle



I've been finishing up the Wildflowers Quilt

in the Thread Shed...




Thread Shed.....Built in 2000







It is finally......under the needle







This quilt is all about these gorgeous Hoffman Florals







I am using gold thread that will blend...







I don't want the stitching competing with the fabrics...







I am quilting a leafy vine design...














The quilting shows up better on the back side...
