Golden Quilt update

Thanks for all your comments on the quilt that I have been making for my parents. I have been steaming along with it and now have machine quilted around each block. I am now shadow quilting in each block with embroidery thread.

I have completed hand quilting the pigeon feet block…

 And the second block to get the treatment is this one based on a variation of Sawtooth Star

So that is 2 done and 10 to go!

    Stick with it my friend, you'll get there! My husband says I'm birdist about pigeons, but really that block should have a prettier name than the pigeon feet block.

    I spy a bit of Dolce by Tanya Whelan - I have a project in progress with this fabric in it! Love the soft aquas and turquoises in this quilt. Your quilting is looking lovely!
