It’s been a while since I’ve posted pictures of my WIP. Mainly because I’ve been working on adding the blending filament to the angel’s wing. What a pain that stuff is to work with! The blending filament part is finished, though, so now I just have to do the detail back stitching.

My mom did the fancy quilting part in the middle on her quilting frame with her machine. The straight lines going through the blocks, though, were done with her regular machine on the dining room table.
