Another Birthday Quilt





Yesterday was my eldest son Tristan's birthday. He and Sylvia, and their little girl Eve live and work on a dairy farm, and their home is a rather tired 70's house, with a 80's colour scheme. Their bedroom is dominated by the colour brown, and I chose this range of Denise Schmidt 's fabrics...Flea Market Fancy, because I knew that it would be perfect to jazz up their room a little, and I am hoping it will.
It has been rather a long time in the making, mainly because of the size... and oh boy, it was a bit of a headache quilting this on my little sewing machine...how I wished for a "long arm machine".
Never mind, it is all finished now, I just have to attach the label and hand it over !

That is absolutely beautiful! and I can just picture a few little girls dancing dolls across all the different ballroom floors you've created there ;^)
