Started out wanting to try English Paper Piecing since I could do it on the plane when I viisted my sister. They are the flowers from 30's prints. Then what to do with them? Thus the squares. Wanted a crisp white border, but then wide white borders seemed too plain! So I added the applique. Kind of a hodge podge but it turned out OK for the guest room

Thanks a lot! . I put buttons in the center of each flower. Then I have to keep the door closed to the bedroom because my dachshund puppy with chew the buttons off!

Looks great. A beautiful quilt.

IrelandDragonQuilting 04-30-2011 09:52 AM

Uhm so can I come over and stay?! ;) Very very creative ideas I think. It reminds me of the bed and breakfast I stay at in Vernal, Utah, most of the rooms have these beautiful quilts on the beds, making it sooooo welcoming!

Painiacs 04-30-2011 10:21 AM

What a great way to set them....something traditional brought out of the ordinary :thumbup: :thumbup:

Evelynquilts 04-30-2011 03:39 PM

you made a beautiful quilt...great job :thumbup:

BeeNana 04-30-2011 04:11 PM

Very nice indeed. You did a great job with making the pattern and the end product you should be proud.
It is far better than "okay".

LeeAnn 04-30-2011 04:31 PM

Very pretty.

cathyvv 04-30-2011 04:33 PM

It's much more than "OK". Wonderful and creative are adjectives I'd use to describe it.
