Today I am tired, Easter holidays are tiring! So I'm going to give you lots of photos and a few words. Probably best that way!
Hugest thanks to Jenna at Sew Happy Geek, without her awesome QAL this wouldn't be here :-)

| everyone casually drapes their quilts over the garden bench - right? Well they do when the 7 year old on hand is too short to hold it up! |
 |
| Circle quilting, may not be the last time you see this! |
 |
| FMQ squiggly lines |
 |
| Ooops, so those quilt labels I printed are not washable after all ;-) |
 |
| Obligatory folded quilt shot! |
 |
| Backed in a £1 charity shop flannel sheet that took days of hunting for! |

The circles are gorgeous! Did you do them freehand?!
Loving your work my dear!
It looks fantastic! How did you do the circles?
Looks great!! Love all the quilting!! =D
Yes they are tiring!!
The quilt looks wonderful - think you better edit your post to say how you did those circles because I want to know to!!
Sorry about the label ;) doesn't detract from the brilliance though!
Its an absolute beauty, you should be really happy with it!
Great piecing, great quilting - Well done Emily ! You must be so proud and with good reason!
Grrr re the label - I just quilt mine FMQ style on the quilt somewhere and it is easier than you think! Practice a bit first though!
Looks fab, love the circle and FMQ combo. Bugger on the label though...
I just followed through to you from Flickr, your quilt looks lovely. Those circles are just perfect!!
love your quilt
Gorgeous quilts - I have to make a modern sampler quilt...add it to the bucket list!
Love that quilt! I back all of my quilts in charity shop finds, sheets, single quilts etc: it's a fraction of the price!
It looks amazing! I though about doing that QAL but never got round to it. Wish I had now after seeing yours!
Oh my goodness you're quilting mad! Look at you! The circle quilting here is just gorgeous. Great choice!
