Finally Finished the Geisha Quilt and News of a Giveaway



This quilt took me ages to do, or it just felt like ages. I remember posting each and every block that I machine embroidered, and then finally getting the top together. I have free motioned the entire quilt, and I am thrilled to have it completed. We have it hanging in the bedroom. It is taking up a good part of the wall, but we were both pleased with the effect of the room once the wallhanging was up.




Hallelujah, I am done!
