I am pleased with the way this quilt has come together. During September I will be selling this quilt on its' own, or in combination with the other roses quilt at a reduced price.

Today I went to a vintage and craft fair in Preston as part of the Guild celebrations , and came across a gorgeous yellow tea set
Tea for two ?

| And knitted pieces in unexpected places ! Plus I just could not resist the call of fabric bits and pieces saying "take me home, you know you want to !" So I did, but that's for another day .... and another quilt.... It's handmade Monday, an opportunity to look at other lovely blogs and this is my first contribution! |
Love your Rose quilt. Interesting how your quilt and my quilt are so different. Both rose fabrics
