Down the Rabbit Hole Quilt

Here is my happy little Down the Rabbit Hole Quilt

taped down to my floor and pinned into a 'quilt sandwich':

 Embroidery and applique

accompanied by curves, circles, knots and scribbles,

now form three whimsical flowers with leaves on the quilt back. 

They were really quite fun to create

during our summer's end camping trips.

To refresh your memory, 

for even I have nearly forgotten,

here is the quilt front.

This week, I took my happy little quilt sandwich into Hart's Fabrics, 

showing it to my friend Tina who manages the store. 

Well, she loved my quilt. 

I think she squeeled in delight. 

I like friends that like my stuff!

She also encouraged me to continue the detail by hand-quilting rather than free-motion.

I agree.

 

 And now that I've gotten over the fact

that this quilt most likely won't be completed lickety split,

I'm ready for some cozy hand-quilting time!
