My wife embroidery quilts

[larrykoskie]

My wife just finished her 8th quilt.   She makes embroidery quilts all by hand.   She doesn't use a machine for any part of the quilt.  She buys the colored thread (floss) and the square patterns and starts adding the floss one color at a time.   When she gets all the squares finished, she sews then onto a sheet of fabric then add backing and filler and quilts them all together and again all by hand.  I have taken lots of pictures of them but here are some of the photos that I had to crop down to be able to attach them here.

I couldn't add these to the last post because I had reached my limit.  Most of these takes her about 6 months or more to complete.

She has embroidered enough squares to make 3 additional quilts or more but hasn't gotten around to putting them together. She enjoys doing the squares but it becomes hard work to make them into a quilt. So some remain unfinished.
