Valentine's quilt



I know it is nearly a month late but a friend just sent me these 2 lovely pictures of my Valentine's Day quilt on display at the Quilt Guild. It was a UFO (unfinished object - for non quilters). I had the top finished for Valentine's Day 2007 but it lay around because I didn't want to quilt it. The Guild has a UFO challenge - in November you sign up a UFO and have it finished by February or pay a fine. This was my challenge. Luckily a friend lent me a better sewing machine - a Bernina - very like the one I left in Britain so I was able to machine quilt it and get it finished in time. It looks pretty good in the pictures but I don't think it is going to make it back to Britain.
