    I was kind of ho-hum about the fabric when I first saw it, but you have arranged a beautiful quilt that is just lovely. Please show us the finished project.

    I also love the series, the fabrics and top are lovely. Glad you decided to hand quilt it in the "English" style and look forward to seeing it finished.

    Yes, I was discussing with the husband how I should hand quilt it, and was looking at stencils. he suggested doing a 1920's British style, as I am in love with the show, and it's a quilt pair... so I am going too. 30$ worth of stencils ordered... and wool batting... just waiting for it all to arrive

    ..so the fabric is from the downtown line? I too like the series very much, but I don't think I will invest in the fabric.....
