and sitting pretty waiting to be used and loved:
This quilt contains no shashing - instead it has a simple repeating pattern throughout the quilt top:
The quilt back is as simple as can be - a single sheet beautiful print from Henry Glass and Co. The contrast shows up each side of the quilt but at the same time each consist of beautiful florals for consistency:
For the binding I used a playful and colorful polka dot cotton print. I love how the aqua plays against the pink of the fabric and it picks up the aqua from some of the fabrics on the quilt top:
I do love this little girly quilt. It has a soft beauty about it. It's simple design keep the focus on the beautiful fabrics.
