    The quilt measures about 1m square. I can’t remember the exact dimensions—and can’t measure it since I gave it to my mom for Christmas.

    I really enjoyed making this quilt! Embroidering is very satisfying.

    Its a beautiful quilt. It has so many little embroidered details. I admire anyone who has the patience to make a quilt. One of these days I’d like to make one.

    Oh, I love quilts! Very neatly done, I love the border details! What are the dimensions of the quilt?
