Retro Roses

Here is a piece in progress. It's been pinned together and I'm ready to start quilting. I think this one will be hand and machine quilted. I love the old-fashioned feel to these squares of fabric I have cut.

I have added white borders around the squares, I'm possibly going to add strips of rose fabric, and embroideries, to the borders when the quilting is done.

    Thank you Carolyn. Still working on the quilt. I have stitched an inner border of leaves, and am now putting together another edging border. I read your new post yesterday. Wonderful as always !
