Once all the medallions for my dresden blocks were hand sewn, I could begin to make rows. I did decide to make sashings. I did use my time at our guild's open sew to get this far. I think I want to make a piano key border. This was my daughter's baby quilt from 1986. After 2 sons, I wanted all the pink I could get. But, she definitely didn't like pink. sigh I revived my interest last year during the rainbow scrap challenge.

This is so pretty, Maggie! I love how the sashing and cornerstone pull all the blocks together, too. Maybe your daughter will want it now?!
ReplyDeleteYour Dresden plates look lovely and I’m sure some will love the pink, even if it’s not your daughter.
ReplyDeleteI think the pink Dresdens look lovely, a very pretty quilt for you to enjoy. Happy stitching!

ReplyDeleteYou made really good progress. Definitely very pretty in pink!
ReplyDeleteThe Dresdens are lovely & the dark sashing looks great.
ReplyDeleteI love your pretty pink dresdens. Now I'll wait patiently till you put the piano key border. Guess your daughter hasn't grown to liking pink over the years? Will you keep this one for yourself?
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! If she still doesn't like it ,if it brings you joy,keep it & enjoy the memories it holds for you
