BQS2 progress

I've made a bit of progress on my BQS2 cushion / pillow.  Thanks J for letting me have some machine time this weekend.


I got the back motif stitched down and the FMQ completed

All lovely work - but how I hate doing french knots. How could you do that many? We had to do a full sized oak leaf picture out of the bloody things at school. Took most of the year and it nearly put me off crafts forever.
