After something like 40 hours of quilting, the swans are finished!

Fantastic! No wonder you've been quiet recently.

I wonder what something like that would sell for in an Oxford Street store?

I'm afraid I've rather got into Reddit lately....</small Less than it would cost if I charged a reasonable amount for my time, I suspect. There's easily 80 hours of work in it!

That is very beautiful. I hope a quilt show or two are in its future.

It's going into the Big Quilt Club annual challenge, quite unintentionally (the theme is "Borderlines" or similar, and someone at Little Quilt Club pointed out that it fits). Some of the Little Quilt Club ladies were trying to convince me to put it in for the Kent show (next year, now, as I'm sure to be past the deadline for the one next month). I'm thinking about it!

You are your own best judge on this. But I think it's good for private art to get out into the world occasionally.

Lovely!

Ye olde crafts are underrated in this mechanized world.

[flick]

Thank you!

This olde craft would have taken a hell of a lot longer without a nice mechanised sewing machine, though!

[birguslatro]

Well, a peddle one, I hope!
