A big project

This summer I decided to try my hand at something new - machine patchwork quilting. I had tried patchwork before, hand-sewing the pieces together but I never got around to making anything of worth from my efforts. I trawled the internet for inspiration, mapped out my design and then just went for it. This is my first attempt at machine patchwork and for a rare change, even I was impressed with my efforts (which although not perfect, the overall result is ok).
The finished size of the quilt is 200cm x 200 cm. My arms ached for a week after finishing it!!
Have a nice weekend everyone.
