I was excited to attach vine panel #5 to the others. Slowly this quilt is growing. It makes me wonder how long it took Susan McCord to complete her quilt.It is so hard to photograph. I don't have a design wall so for once I thought I would pin it to the drapes and get a straight on picture. I've printed off panel #6 but I really should applique a block or 2 for my Bird of Paradise quilt before I start another panel. Thanks so much Janet for making this marvelous pattern available!! If I try to stay disciplined maybe I can finish both quilts :0)
I haven't done any handquilting since May. Now that it's so cold here I am wanting a quilt to snuggle under and work on through the winter months. I found this neglected top when I moved my sewing room to the basement. It's basted now and I'll get started on it tonight.
Happy Quilting!!

Just so beautiful. What a major accomplishment. Wish I could say the same. It's on my list for 2013

Oh Janet it is looking just great. I love the movement of the vine and those striped leaves.
It looks sensational and it's so exciting every time another vine gets added. It'll be a true heirloom.
Janet, it is so pretty.
It's coming along so nicely.
You're such a bad influence, guess what I bought today....
Beautiful work Janet!! You are way ahead of me!!!
Enjoy your handquilting.
Wonderful wonderful work! and the colours are super when you zoom in. Well done :)

so gorgeous! what a masterpiece you are making. I've always loved this quilt and its a joy to watch your progress.
How wonderful is that?! Amazing! What an heirloom!!
Simply stunning... and glad to see the progress!
You go, girl! That looks SOOOO good. You've come such a long way. I don't know how Susan McCord did it...you know she probably sewed at night, after working her tail off all day. I am currently brain dead after 9:00...
In stitches,
Teresa :o)
Just lovely!
