Default Pink 1930's Tumbler

One of our guild members had a yardage sale and there were lots of 1930's fat quarters. I also found some yardage that was perfect, it is "cheater" fabric, you know, the kind you don't have to do anything to, it looks great just sitting there. I had some bubble gum pink fabric that was once a duvet, until I rescued it from Goodwill. It gave me over six yards of pink, just waiting for some 1930's fabric. I think all the colors married nicely. I quilted it myself with a simple outline using a walking foot.

This is the fabulous cheater fabric, perfect for the back. The back looks better than the front I spent so much time on! LOL

Closeup of quilting, I kept trying to lift the loose thread, until I remembered it is a photograph, habits are ingrained, see a loose thread, reach for it.
