I finished it. By lunchtime on Tuesday I was all done and my latest offering was going round in the washing machine. I always like to give my quilts a rinse and a turn in the tumbler before they get used. It's a bit washed out here, the next picture shows the colour better.
The fluffy edges have started their journey. As you can see, I stuck to my usual less is more and very simple style of quilting.
Eventually even the label will have fluffy edges. I decided to try out the letters program on my sewing machine. It was fun and I think I'll be doing this some more.
So I spent the afternoon sat with my cross stitch. My bear has the beginnings of a purse.
I'm on a late shift today, I'd like to do a little more cross stitch, but my sewing machine is calling to me. I was designing quilts in my head last night and really need to get some paper out and do a little maths. I don't think DD will be waiting very long before she sees progress on French Roses Again!*
Take care.

That's a pretty quilt. I love the neutral shades in it
oooh I like this, it is on my to-do-list, I even have the fabric from the Stitchery closing down sale!!! Deb (aka Angel & the Pukeko) is doing this one too!!
It's lovely, I can imagine how beautiful it will be with fluffy edges
That is SUCH a pretty quilt!!!! I love the fluffy edges!
It turned out really well. The colours are so lovely and soft.
I made a practice block of the French Roses quilt but have not gone any further. Yours has a soft muted look that I like.
Loving your french roses, must finish mine, its ready to sandwich and then I have a nother one to make.
hugs Deb
