Karen's Roses


This is a very pretty quilt and my first thought was to use a pink thread. I was sure I wanted to use pink. So I loaded the quilt and started quilting and just minutes into it I thought, "Oh no, I don't like it."
I took a break and came back to it later and I love it. I think it's the right choice for sure.



The panto is Vanilla Orchid, batting is Warm & Natural, and the thread is PermaCore Old Rose.



Just enough!

Yep, this is what I call just enough backing:

The Beginning:


The End:


Whew!!!
