    Default Nonnie's Messenger - Birthday Quilt for my Sister

    I saw the pink fabric on a sale table at Hancock's a couple years ago and grabbed it because I knew if I didn't it would eat at me. Pink is my sister's favorite color. The vintage daisy designs and swirls or from Embroidery Library and I hand quilted the border edges and loop-de-loops in the blocks. The topper was made from scraps. Thank you for looking.

    ​Lovely quilt, topper and cross! Did you do the cross on your embroidery machine also? Your big hand stitch loop de loops really add to the design of your quilt!

    I really like the fabrics, embroidery design and the scalloped edges.
