I have a number of smaller pieces. Besides the beauty what intrigues me is the happenstance of it all...and like you said..parts just left undone. We should pay some heed to this as we strive to shed some of our perfectionism in our quilting. Beauty is not perfect. Your piece makes my heart sing!!

I remember them well and loved them. I can't imagine how awesome it would be to have an entire bedspread like this. The weight must be incredibly comforting.

About 12 years back I had bought a bed spread from India during one my visits, I still love it. So much work goes into making these bed spreads. I am glad you showed it here. Thank you!
