Here it is: finished! I just put in the last few stitches on the white binding-I'm so glad this is completed! Hand embroidery and machine quilting team up quite well!Here's a close up of one of the baskets and the diagonal curvy lines I quilted through the embroideries.
Here you can see the wandering vine with leaves I quilted in the large white areas and
the small vine with leaves and larger flowers I machine quilted in the smaller isolated white areas
The center embroidered block shows how the curvy lines meet in the middle.
Here's the quilt-folded on a chair and showing the white binding outside the black border.
I'm linking up with Sarah's Can I get a Whoop-Whoop today. Hop on over and see the wonderful things on view.

What a beautiful job you've done, Miri! It is really lovely.
It's just GORGEOUS!! I was looking for this quilt on your blog the other day, as I may be quilting a charity quilt that has embroidered squares and wondered how it could be done. So nice to see it all completed. Your quilting is perfect for it!
