Quilt of Roses

I've become addicted to quilting this year. It's a portable sewing that I can do by hand, at my own pace, and complete while watching TV. This is the second piece I've completed this fall, and was a Christmas gift for a family with five young ladies, or 'roses.'


I like creating my own quilting patterns, and although I ran a bit short on green fabric and had trouble doing the stems quite the way I wanted, it all still turned out quite nicely.


If you click on any of the pictures, you'll be able to see a larger version that displays more of the stitch detail.


Roses are hard to do right!


Over all, however, I'm pleased with how this turned out.
