My Top is Finally Finished!

It isn't the most perfectly executed top in the world, but I felt like it turned out pretty well.  I was so ready to move on to something else! :-) It's a queen-sized quilt, machine pieced and in places embellished with hand applique and hand embroidery.

 I started some of the squares as a BOM project with my guild in Texas many years ago, and then made additional squares for it with the Quilt Bee in Va that I attended with my Mom.  The Quilt Bee blocks were put together by everyone to make a lap sized quilt, but I wanted to add my blocks to the ones from before and make a larger quilt.  A view of the "top half"....

 and the "bottom half".....

 Then I decided to add the center medallion of appliqued grapes and embroidered berries, which led to me appliqueing and embroidering additional parts of the quilt.  I think it all works well together!
