FINISHED!



Everyone's suggestions were great!  Thank you!  I finally decided on blue gingham to finish off the Dresden Plates.  I love how it turned out!  It is my first real quilt, made from a pattern, started over five years ago.  It feels SO good to have it finished after all this time.
 I am in love with all of the fabrics used for the petals-- all thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law, who understands the need for a well balanced stash. 
 I used a vintage sheet for the back.
 Maybe a little over kill with a dust ruffle I made a few years back-- most of the fabrics were from the same 30s reprint line.

  5. You did it!!!!!!!!
    Congratulations. But I think you started this quilt when Lucy was a todler, more like 7 years ago. It is a gorgeous quilt and I am so proud of you for finishing it. This will be a family heirloom.
