Can it be ?

Thanks for all the cheering , it worked , I have the crazy quilt quilted , maybe it needs more but for now I am calling it done and I love it , looks like summer to me .
 A while back I showed you a section of the embroidery for this next project , this is at least two years old but I am thinking more like three so I am dancing the happy dance today as I finished off the runner . I will show you the entire runner first then each end so you can read the stitching .
I even hand quilted this one , it was easy going so I figured it would look better than by machine.  Ok here is the first end.
And the other end.
I love it and it will have a special place on my treadle sewing machine , I think that is the perfect spot for it ,should have taken a picture of it there , oh well too late now :-)
 I am off now to get some groceries , hope you are enjoying a lovely day .Thanks for stopping by .
 hugs Sheila

    These are both wonderful - you don't see many contemporary crazy quilts around so it is quite unique
