I have now finished this, well i say finished but it needs to be bound around the edge.
Its called 25 Days and 9 hours.
Each square represents one day. I treid to do a square each day as an exercise in being a bit freer. Then when they were all attached to the background I did a type of kantha quilting around the edge which took about 9 hours. It doesn't matter how quick and free I try to be I always end up with a bit of intensive stitching!
I am pleased with it but it was just a design exercies so I don't know what I will do with it now. Too many bits on it to be a cushion so it will probably end up under the bed. With all the rest!

That is really beautiful! Such an intricate bit of quilting too.
I too am thrilled that clothkits are back - they have some gorgeous things in their online shop!
What a great idea stitching a piece every day, but it is far to lovely to hide under the bed! I had no idea clothkits were back, I'm going to have a look at their web site now.
you could hang it up and look at it :-). I used to dress my little girls in clothkits clothes (20 years ago now!!), we loved those knitted dresses they made. It's great to see them back, and I love all the birds!
What a lovely embroidery, all different but sitting together so well.
I'm delighted Clothkits is back, total nostalgia trip!
Joanna, this is just beatiful!!! I love it all, the mixed media side, the colours you chose and the stitching !!! Wonderfull job!! Put it on a wall, not under the table, please!
