    Wow it is a stunning quilt. When I saw the fabric it came from....... I would never have pictured the finished product. Let us know how you decide to quilt it.

    Hugs

    I love the original fabric, but I think the OBW is just as pretty. It is amazing that you take a beautiful piece of fabric with roses and come up with a gorgeous quilt. I have no idea what type of quilting would look good, but I think just about anything would. I wouldn't do it too tightly, though. Just kind of let it meander. JMHO

    When I make a OBW, I either use the original fabric in the border, or use a piece of it on the back. That way it adds a bit of interest when you show the quilt or when you gift it. I love these quilts. It is, to me, an expression of your artistic self. You did a great job and it flows beautifully.

    Wow! Hard to believe all those beautiful blocks came from this fabric! The fabric is beautiful, but doesn't look at all like the OBW.
