Are you sick of seeing my house quilt yet? I thought perhaps something different would be better so this is one of the antique quilt tops from my collection. I love the fabrics and the simplicity of the pattern shows them off. Sometimes simple is better. I don’t know how I will quilt it yet but I know that it won’t be anything complex, I don’t want to compete with the fabric.
Today is a day to work in the garden so this morning I took a few pictures. Click to enlarge.
