This is so pretty! :thumbup:
You could create a similar quilt by using the faux cathedral window technique, using circles of fabric. I had a play with this technique a while back, without buying all sorts of fancy templates. I used a dinner plate with a little bit of sticky stuff to cut out the circles, and you can even add batting and make it quilt as you go. Where the 'wings' are folded back you could use fancy stitches as I did if you machine has them and embellish with lace and ribbons galore...oh god I want to go and make one now ..I think it would look perfect for you :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
