I recently showed the completed quilt top and now I have the quilting done and the binding attached. It is ready to be mailed to my swap partner. I hand quilted this and enjoyed doing it. I haven't done much hand quilting in the last couple years.
To refresh your memory, the applique blocks are from a Lori Smith pattern. Her quilt pattern business is named "From My Heart to Your Hands". I would like to combine the applique blocks from this pattern with some other applique patterns I have and make a quilt for myself. Probably with a different layout. I forget how many block patterns there are in the pattern but several that I did not include in this quilt.
Thanks for taking time to pay my blog a visit.

What a treasure! Fabulous fabric choices and how special that you hand quilted it.
wonderful quilt! the colors are great and I love the nine patches.
What size is it? I know her patterns can be quite small sometimes.
This is a very pleasing quilt. I also happened upon your July 2010 pomegranate block post (through google) because I'm working on a pomegranate quilt...That was a lovely block you did!
