I’ve been slowly working away on my Teddy Darling stitchery, which was a pre-printed gifted panel. Teddy was stitched, the flower garlands were done, and then I big stitch quilted along the blue dashed lines. Added some simple wavy big stitch quilting in the floral borders and I was almost there.
Quilting in the borders
Binding was next, and I had just enough of a pretty soft pink stripe to do the job. There, all done.
I’ve so enjoyed all the time I’ve spent “slow stitching” this little treasure. It’s a small little quilt, only 25 inches square, and the panel was a gift from my quilting penfriend Carol from South Dakota. Must admit I've had it tucked away quite some time before I finally started stitching it. And of course, after all my hand work, I’ll be keeping Teddy Darling at home with me, perhaps one day we will welcome a little great grand-child into the family. Won’t that be wonderful.

"Teddy Darling" is indeed a treasure! You have done a brilliant job with the embroidery; it is so pretty. The floral fabric is colourful and cheery, and perfectly complements Teddy. Yes, this sweet little quilt needs to live with you.
How lovely! your Teddy Darling stitchery is beautiful. I hope you do have a grandchild one day to pass this beautiful quilt on to. Have a lovely Sunday.
Such a cute little quilt. Wonderful finish.
Teddy Darling is absolutely beautiful!! I purchased a vintage stamped panel from eBay recently of The Three Bears. Your piece makes me want to get started!!
Teddy Darling is just adorable--nice work on this--great finish....hugs, Julierose
That IS darling. I love how the bright floral border picks up the colors in the garlands. Congrats on a great little finish.

What a sweet finish!
I love the Teddy Darling quilt, your colors are just beautiful and the floral fabric is the perfect choice.
Teddy is adorable, Jenny! He looks like he was a fun project - love those embroidered flowers.
Oh Jenny this is absolutely adorable! The border fabric is perfect for this treasure!
You made a cute quilt. Teddy Bear was beautifully embroidered. Love how you made the hand quilting also.
Beautiful finish!
Love your teddy bear, he is cute with all the happy colours.
That is adorable! What a wonderful finish!
Teddy Darling is so adorable and your stitching, quilting and finishing are beautiful.
Teddy is adorable, and you did such a magnificent job finishing him. It’s a nice size for a newborn and also for a dolly quilt.
So pretty. You finished it beautifully.
I have some preprinted squares from my Mom that I should really get done. Perhaps this summer I will sit outside and do the embroidery.
God bless.
Gorgeous stitching and a wonderful finish. Perfect gift to keep for someone special.
This quilt sure does live up to its name; it is darling. Have a great week.
Teddy is indeed a darling! He makes me want to get back to my embroidery! I am so influenced when I see things I like. Meanwhile, imagine finding binding in lime green...I would have agreed with you that that would have been quite the feat. Lovely bag and cobblestone blocks, Jenny.
Such a sweet project and your embroidery is perfection :)
Wishing you a lovely day.
Such a sweet little teddy!
Beautiful work
What a lovely wee quilt - such a good feeling to have completed something that has sat waiting for a while!
So cute. No wonder you are hanging onto this one.
