Very pretty quilt; you did a good job. I have a few Lilac bushes and they keep spreading in my yard; I have to keep cutting them back.

Boy, don't I wish!! Be careful, I might just do that!!!When we were in France, I did my BEST to smell the smell right out of all the lilacs!! I really miss them so much!

Lilacs are my favourite too - I love all the different shades, and esp the white ones. Even have a lilac quilt on the guest bed.

I know, Katrine. I think yours was what gave the the idea to do a lilac quilt of my own. Yours is luscious too!! Sigh. I MISS lilacs!

Wowzers!! That is gorgeous!! And BIG!! Your move from one fabric to the other is perfect!! I love that scrolling green--fits perfectly!!!

Oh--how will it be quilted?

That pattern has been on my to-do list for months... I saw it somewhere and grabbed the book--then did the Triple Irish Chain first. :roll: Now it's further down the list, so I'm so glad to see yours!

Here you go--ready...sniff sniff sniff
