A stitchin' life - Aurifil threads

My first project hand quilted with Aurifil threads Makò nr. 28
colors are vibrant, yearn is soft
on a white background they look so bright
I think I'm gonna use these threads in my classes, to make the difference!
And this is the back of the quilt
Every day can be a Quilting Day!

  7. Such lovely hand quilting. Been there, done it--I prefer doing intense hand appliqué and there are only so many hours in a day. But I can still appreciate meticulous and well-crafted work such as yours. Thanks for sharing.
    best, nadia
