Pretty in Pink.


Finished this quilt top ages ago, and have been trying to decide weather to have it machine quilted or to hand quilt it. Decided on getting it mchine quilted, because there is just so much detail in it. I love it's vintage colours and 1930s fabrics. I got to use a lot of my favourite tiny scraps for the applique and the umpteen 2 inch squares in it.











I think I was proabably attracted to it because of the tea set in the middle block.






But there are so many pretty bits. I loved making it.
