Embroidered Flower Quilt


I bought these old time embroidered flower blocks at the Omaha Quilt Show last year. I added the sashing and quilted it with a crosshatch over the blocks and a couple of different flower borders and sashes.
I used Mother Goose thread. Just need to bind it and it's done! One down, too many to go!

I wonder how long ago these blocks were made.

Light isn't good on this, but shows some more blocks. The flower base is more the color of the picture above this one.


One of the border and sashing patterns.

I put a strip down the center of the backing fabric, gotta use up that fabric!
Cute little Posy!
This is the backing.
