Done! Well almost. Mostly? Quilted anyway
The embroidery had been finished for a while. It was just tackling the quilting.which I did by the “quilt in the ditch” method, carefully outlining each square.

Since there are six girls, each done four times each with rows of blank square between, could be considered a lot of fiddly work

the backing is bright – Perhaps too bright? Anyway – it is a soft and lovely polar fleece which just asks to be be cuddled.

Now, to see if I can get the Eldest to turn the edges and sew the binding for me…..
