Finished.

Thanks to those who send encouraging messages. :-) You know who you are. I got on yesterday and quilted some ferns into my Kiwiana quilt. Two small ferns each at top and bottom. and two long ferns up either side panel.
 I didn't go free motion, opting instead to do the drag it all this way and drag it all that way method. It's not as flat and perfect as I would have liked, but I love it anyway.
It's hanging over a disused door in my sitting room and will stay there for quite some time I think. :-)
Now I'm off to plot my next project.

I don't blame you for leaving it there, it's wonderful. Like the thread you've used for the quilting

Wow! The ferns really set off the border. The whole quilt is really effective. You should be very pleased with it.

The ferns look great to me! Shame you can't see them too well in the big picture.
