the roses are what makes the quilt, then add in the complimentary fabrics, Wala! Just a beauty, no doubt about it.

WTG!!!

Izy that is just BEAUTIFUL!!

Beautiful!!! It makes me long for springtime :D :D :D

That is beautiful. I love the colors and the quilting is awesome. Great job.

Many thanks to everyone for your lovely comments :D :D :D

Terri & Elle: the quarter blocks were already made up so didn't take long to stitch the cushion top, then free motioned the sandwich..BOY is it easy on a little thing, I think I am getting confident enough to now start doing some patterns :wink:

BTW I hacked the front off my plastic closed darning foot, so I can see where I am going better without distortion, as I couldn't justify the £30 for a new one, so just took a serrated kitchen knife and hacked that baby down...NOW I need to do a little adjustment as it hung up on a couple of seams, but it was SOOOOOOOOOO much better to see !!

That is such a good idea because it does distort it when you are trying to FM. I will do that to one of mine.

Izy that is well-named! It's so fresh and pretty and the fussy cut roses really make it something special. You have a real talent for putting random fabrics together and making them look like a coordinated collection. I know you're working from limited resources, even taking Terri's awesome generosity into account, it's not the same as having an LQS on your doorstep! :D

WOW!!!!!!!

You are so right K, some of these fabrics were odd shaped bits, but as long as the fabric blended it got used!!. Apart from my Son's wedding quilt, I have NEVER went out and bought fabric for a particular project, I just have to work with what I have...which would be alot less if it hadn't been for the many fabric angels who help me out, bless them all!! :D :D :D

ooooooooo pretty :D

Izy - that is very pretty, love your quilting on it!!

double post, sorry :oops:

Thanks Bev!! :D

Hey! Iluv2quilt, don't worry I can stand double compliments :D :lol: :wink:

They are both beautiful.

Thanks Littlehud :D :D :D

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love them.

Thanks Quilt4u, I took it into our group today and everyone loved it too, it it gives me lots of warm fuzzy feelings when everyone enjoys seeing my work, thanks everyone :D

Very pretty. Nice and bright. :D

This is my first post ever. I have been absolutely enjoying all the quilts I see here and have been too afraid to even start - but - that is over - I will be posting a picture before Christmas.

Now my question - what kind of batting did you use for this quilt? It is beautiful and looks very thick and soft. My granddaughter would love it.

Thanks to everyone here for all your inspiration - I feel like I am going to fit right in here.

Blessings,
Scherrie

Welcome to the board Scherrie!!

The batting I used was a 80% cotton 20% polyester mix, BUT I used it DOUBLE as this will be going to the UK where it gets pretty cold during the winter!! I don't know the actual brand name as it is bought by our group but I am sure that some of our members can recommend an american brand for you that is similar!!

Thanks for your lovely compliments and I look forward to seeing some of your quilts too!! :D

Oh so pretty Izy! I love the colors.

Thanks Redgarnet :D :D :D

Very pretty colors! Love it and the pillow!

Thanks Vicki, you are all so very generous with your compliments :D :D :D

Tell you what I have seen it up close and personal and its is superb, the photos don´t do it justice. I loved the pillow
