Here it is finally . My Quilt (my version of federation) the material was Polyester Damask ( Boy was that hard)If only I knew then, what I know now how to manage it , I would have not made the label " How not to make a Quilt" hehh
I love the pastel colours which goes so well with the colours in my bedroom and the carpet. The pale green satin was left overs from 4 bridesmaid dresses that I made , and the gold and green was from the same bridesmaid. Will post a few of the blocks so you can see the colour and the detail

158718It is beautiful, just lovely! I made the picture bigger, and could see more of it, but it is just gorgeous. I looks like you embroidered the satin too. Was it hard? Someone told me that it is a nightmare to work on satin. *

Thank you . Embroidering on the Satin was easy compared to the Damask. As the Satin was backed with Vysoflex it was pretty stable.

thank you Shirley. Yes they seem to compliment the room. Just by chance too as since I'v made it I changed the colour of the carpet to "Green "
22886Gorgeous, this is another piece of work. I literally need one 'how to make a Quilt' instructions. You have done an excellent job, Roslyn!
