    Just stunning! What I would give to make one as beautiful as yours. Lilacs are our favorite. We had many when we lived in Mi. Also went to Mackinaw Island for the Lilac festival. Also had some in our yard. When we moved to SC we planted 2 bushes from babies when we got our new home 3 yrs. ago but they are still babies. Just cant wait they are able to bloom.[right under our bedroom window] Our daughter in NC [60 miles from us] had her big bush bloom 3 weeks ago. The brat!Where did you get that wonderful fabric?

    Beautiful! I love it. The colors and quilting just make you feel like you're in a bed of lilacs.

    Beautiful quilt! I, too, grew up in Spokane til I was 12 and just loved the lilacs in spring. We used to go every year to the parade also. This was in the 50s and Spokane was a great city in which to grow up. I have a few lilacs in my garden on the other side of the mountains but they don't do as well as in Spokane.

    Beautiful!

    I, too, grew up in the lilac city of Spokane. Lilacs are the greatest thing about spring. I loved the Lilac Parade through the downtown streets. Thanks for the memories!

    What chaulk pencil are you using?

    :-D

    Beautiful job - both of you! Our lilacs are just starting to turn brown. Seems as though spring has taken forever to get here!
