Cottage Romance complete! Thank you Bailey!

I started this quite awhile ago....Bailey, from this forum, was very helpful and shared her info and inspiration!
I FMQ'ed this 80x80 quilt on my DSM....I marked the Baptist fan, and just free-handed the feathers in the wide border. I posted about my problems with slight puckering on the back-most likely from the bias stitching. Next time, I will stabilize the quilt sandwich with some dissolvable thread first. Learn new things with every project! The fabrics are Tanya Whelan, and quilted with a pale pink 50 wt Aurifil....love the pretty sheen on Aurufil thread! Now yo get her in the washer to get puckered-up!

Oh it's so pretty and your quilting is fan-tastic! (Sorry, I couldn't resist!, but the quilting is really really nice)

Love the fabrics and the Baptist fan quilting.

Using the pink thread looks great.

This is so pretty and very sweet. I love to admire both the fabric (I'm a fabric addict myself) and the lovely quilting. Hopefully someday when I retire I will have time to learn to quilt like this!
