Tacking out the quilt was much easier than usual because I now have a lovely old pine work table to help me. I still put all the layers together on the floor and then progressed up to the table once I had some base tacking rows in place. It certainly saved my back!
Ready for the first hand quilting stitch!
Tools of the trade.
Rows of tiny stitches start to emerge.
Hope you have enjoyed seeing my quilting progress.
I look forward to revealing the finished quilt to you all soon.
Warmly Lenna

Such a nice blog. I hope you will create another post like this.
What an amazing quilt! How stunning and intricate! You have done a wonderful job! :)
What a lovely quilt. Lovely work as well.
wow!! i love the quilt that you made :) i hope i could learn to do that.. I have a looooong list of things to learn starting with sewing (but i have yet to buy my sewing machine) :)
Awesome is all I can say, little wonder you have not had much time for newsletters. I love it and handstitching is great in winter. Happy stitching/finishing, look forward to seeing more.
Hi Lenna,
The BOM Quilt looks fabulous. The muted colours you have used are really lovely, giving it a vintage feel. Have enjoyed being with you on the journey of your quilt. Now am anxious to see the finished quilt. Tina D.
wow, this looks gorgeous. I'm still a beginner and seeing this is pretty daunting, but who knows, maybe one day...
Lenna your quilt is wonderful
Warm regards Kirrily
Beautiful!
Goodness, Lenna, what alovely work! Your applique is great, and the overall quilt is just luscious! Thank you so much for sharing such inspiration. Regards!
That quilt is just beautiful (so is your blog!).
Your quilt is beautiful! You've done some wonderful work and should be very proud! Congratulations on your quilt - it's a grand prize winner in my thoughts.
Oh it is absoultey stunning! I love this pattern and your stitching is beautiful. I love hand stitching, but find that I just don't have enough time. So I save hand quilting for very special projects :o)
thats gorgeous Lenna, I think you have a winner. well done, Helen
Girl, I LOVE IT! You do such a beautiful job. I thought I was one of the only ones that used a hand hoop to quilt with.Can't wait to see it finished. Would like to know the secret on the get it finished part. LOL
Your BOM quilt is absolutely gorgeous and I love the colours you have chosen. There is something about hand quilting that can make a new quilt look "old". Evonne xx
