    Oh that is just too lovely! I can see how knit fabric would be easy to work with too. You sure did a fine job on the quilting and I just love the colors!

    It was easy to work with as it gives enough to quilt without stretching.

    the quilt was already appliqued from years before, I just had to finish it . I am not good at applique but just quilting around the flowers was easy. Needed the flowers in the corners and I added little plastic flower buttons in the middle of the flowers that I got at Joann's on sale. The think the quilt top is about 50 years old and the squares are all hand sewn to together. Glad it is finished so I can work on another quilt.
