Hand embroidered lap quilt

I love to do hand embroidery. This is one I finished recently. There are a total of nine hand embroidered birds and around the edges of the quilt are the hand embroidered names of each of the birds. Very pretty, but I will show you what I did with the backing in a later posting.

very pretty Karen-wish I could zoom in closer to see the details-but from what I see-I love it! I also love hand embroidery-although I don't get much time for doing it anymore- =O( ~linda~
