It's arrived! Is it the first to cross the Atlantic? Grammy6 received her quilt from me on Thursday.

The print in the middle is of Brighton Pavilion (get googling, ladies), so I built the design around it to make it like a postcard from England. The end result looks totally 1960s, which is a big departure for me. I thought the 60s were pretty shocking at the time, which probably explains the shade of pink.

So, so far we've had the 1950s and the 1960s. Anyone for the 1970s?

Only Krystyna is allowed to scrutinise the binding

Needlegrammy... Just by selling to ALL of the FW owners on this board alone, you could probably make a mint!

How clever.

When I come back in January 2012, I want you for my partner and the FW quilt would be such a special quilt to have... :-D (Chele... did you see my post?????????) :lol: :lol: :lol:

Muv, love your quilt, especially the cursive.

Everyone, have you seen Muv on Youtube?

She is very talented. Take a look.
