ethereal

someone recently used the word ethereal to describe my work
in the bedroom window 
What does ethereal mean?  I had to look it up.
Google definition:
extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world
in living room picture window 
dainty
elegant
graceful
fragile
where I stitch every day 
airy
fine
subtle
unearthly
I finished grand-daughter Aili's quilt top last week.  A hand pieced log cabin shown here.
Aili is an Irish girl's name, also common in Finland and Estonia.
Aili means 'light'.
