Default Why Did I Wait So Long?

I bought the fabric, thread, Decorator Velcro (sticky on one side, sew-in on the other) and some drapery shirring header back in July to make a dust ruffle for the day bed in the guest bedroom. Last night I finally bit the bullet and started working on the dust ruffle and I'm happy to report it is now complete. I opted for a darker gray fabric as I think it will go with just about any quilt I put on the bed. I typically switch between this pink quilt or a bright and black quilt.

I wouldn't know how to do a dust ruffle BUT I LOVE the pink quilt on the bed. Is this your own pattern? It's so pretty.

Very good I have made several, I now use the off white, it seems to go with everything. Beautiful quilt also.

Love your quilt! The dust ruffle really sets a nice "frame" for your quilt.
