    Just finished the top, only the black border to go. I have used the floral print as the focal point to this quilt, it was my old sundress from the 80s which I loved to death and had kept all these years (too big for it now) I love the idea that I can now have it, if not on me, on my bed. Will be hand quilting this with my hoop and black thread.
