    Just beautiful! Did you machine applique'? Looks like lots of hours work. You really did an outstanding job on it! I'd keep it too if I were you.

    This is beautiful and how cool is it that you used thrift shop finds!

    Wadding? Is that like batting?

    What are continental quilts? :oops: :oops:

    Thanks everyone for all the compliments....and to answer your questions Celeste...a continental quilt is just a duvet, usually full of down or polyester , and yes, wadding is batting to you!! lol!
    BJ yes it was all machine appliqued ....I'm not a fan of hand sewing (unless its embroidery) I'll be starting another one tomorrow....I've just found a pattern I like and Ive just pressganged my dh into doing the
    cutting for me!! :lol:
