Finished Wall-Hanging

All finished, and hanging on the wall in my loungeroom:
In real life the colours look a bit warmer than this picture. The design was adapted from a quilt project published in Down Under Quilts (Issue 139, p 80) designed by Sue Manchip. That project was 2 metres square, and all done in batiks. Mine is about 80 x 100cm.

And look what arrived today, all the way from the USA:
Total including postage - $10.68. Such a small price to pay for something that will be so useful!

Thanks, all!

Fran, it's a free-motion/darning foot for my machine. I've been using a borrowed one, but found this one on eBay.
