That quilt is just soooooo beautiful,the roses look great wait i can smell them now. :)
|
I love it, it looks like a whole pile of rose petals. I can almost smell the essence.
Big PS, I wrote the above from page 3. Little did I know that when it cam out on page 5, I had said virtually the same thing. |
I Love It! This would go in my new bedroom beautifully. Just painted walls a pretty pink with white woodwork and the curtains I just hung are white background with beautiful roses all over. I need to go hunting to see if I can find some fabric like yours. Love it.
I am also reading the Elm Creek series and just finished Round Robin. Love her stories. |
It is great to finish a UFO isn't it. It is a bright colorful quilt, mistakes won't matter to anyone who gets to curl up under it.
|
very very pretty! im sure it will be snuggly! i love snuggle quilts, they are great!
|
I love it! You will enjoy the roses for years to come, especially when cold weather comes and the real roses are asleep.
|
I really like it!
|
I LOVE it!!! It will be cheery on a drab winter or rainy day.
|
Thanks for sharing this sophisticated looking quilt. Very nice job!

Ronda, Only on book two. I treated myself to three of the three-in-one hardcovers. Love it. Up to Round Robin and Bonnie's stinky husband having a computer affair. Lovely fabrics, by the way, and there is definitely more to life than perfect corners and points. |
There's nothing to be ashamed of, here. I'm sure this will be a family heirloom. Glad you didn't throw anything out!
|
I love roses!!! Your quilt is soooo pretty! You did a good job in my opinion!!!
|
Mmmmmm. I can almost get a whiff of those roses! So pretty!
|
Just call it a new version of the square on point! I LOVE it!
|
Your quilt is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!! Re: your husband, the Quilt Police. Whenever I make something and show it to DH, I ALWAYS start with "I made this, isn't it beautiful!". And he hasn't the heart to give an honest opinion - and that's the way I like it!
I read this a long time ago, and it stuck with me "Give me your convictions, if you have them - but keep your doubts to yourself, for I have enough of my own." |
I would quilt it gently and the boo-boos will hardly show. This would be like being wrapped in a lovely bouquet!

Wow!
Snuggled up in front of a fireplace seems like a distant thought with temps in the 90's! But my Dear Krystyna what better way to enjoy those novels on a blustery winter day but snuggled under a bed of roses when summer days seem so far away. I love roses and rose fabric....so that equals I really, really like this quilt! Hugs to you my friend! |
Gorgeous, gorgeous rose fabric, beautiful quilt to cuddle up with or just to gaze at, you could get lost in all those beautiful roses!
|
It's very happy looking! And it's good for us to look back and see how much we have learned....and how much we can enjoy a quilt even if some of the points don't match. It's beautiful - enjoy every minute under it reading!
|
Thank you all for your kind comments. Now I just need to figure out what backing fabric to use ... to tie or not to tie? Double batting or no? Decisions, decisions! :)
|
Who cares? It is roses and it is pink. Go girl!
|
It's very pretty!
|
beautiful quilt, and finishing a UFO, I love to see finished. way to go!!
|
WOW quite beautiful!
|
Just 'busy' enough that the points are not noticeable.
|
I like it...pretty colors. Thanks for sharing :)
|
It is such a beautiful rose quilt, just like you are in a rose garden. It reminds me of the roses in some old plates that my Grandmother had and I was lucky enough to get them when she passed away. Thanks for posting.
|
Love your roses and the assembly of all the different fabrics. Points??

Thank goodness you did not retain pointy points; softening the look is so much better, rounding off like the rose petals in the prints. good job.
|
Roses are my favorite flower. I don't see anything but pleasure reading while snuggling with this quilt. Beautiful fabric.
|
Perfection is to strive for...We live in a real world, you've made a real quilt, you're adaptable. It could be your favorite quilt ever. It's like those 'compare the pictures, find the 5 differences'. After you find the differences, who cares?
|
Don't quilt is too much, so it will be a soft cuddly snuggle quilt! Very pretty!
|
I love, LOVE, rose fabrics. They are getting a bit difficult to find now, except for Ro Gregg's work. The colors are absolutely wonderful. As for the points, if the quilt is for yourself, who cares? I agree with Quiltermomma about the thick poly batting and light quilting.....the quilt will be soft and yummy and fewer boo-boos will show. And snuggling will be so fun, especially with a good book! Enjoy!
|
If you made the effort to finish this then it deserves the tittle ... "done to perfection". It is for you! I think you did a rosy job...I love it.
|
Isn't it wonderful to see how far we've come on our quilt journey. Even with the chopped off corners it is a beautiful quilt and all quilts are lovable. Quilt the heck out of it and curl up and read, read, read.
|
It's like you stepped out into a beautiful rose garden all in bloom! It will still keep you warm, whether it's perfect or not. I thought I read somewhere "Only God is perfect. Our quilts don't need to be."
|
Oh, what a gorgeous quilt! It looks so pretty! :)
