My 'It's taking it's time' Quilt!

Since starting my blog I have posted a lot of crochet, some pics of orchids and a  few bead projects, I thought it was about time i showed some of my quilting for those who are addicted. I started this quilt 2 years ago and have only to finish the binding. Getting to it with so much else to do is the problem, just not enough hours in the day.... Mmm.. maybe i should blog a little less and work more?? What do you think?? Lol... Well... maybe..  :))

keeping busy ! quilting as well - so many projects on the go.

my cymbidium is finally showing fat buds at home ! my great uncle used to breed them in Sydney (mine is from a local grower though) - it's where I think i got my habit for orchids - I envy your phaleonopsis - I would just kill it :(

I've only done little tiny projects by hand-no machine quilting. It is such an art.

I love it. Really would like to get up close to "see" it more clearly. Just wish I could do something like that.
Don't know that we could give up blogging or the internet to do more craft though ☺

Hi Clara, sounds like you were sensible... look what i started with.. lucky i have a friend who is a patchwork wiz.. she helped whenever i was stuck, not sure i'd do another of that size although i do have one other on the go.. :))
