This is a southwestern quilt that just works! I love all the fabrics and that black inner border just sets it off! Great job piecing also. Have I mentioned how blessed I am by the excellent piecers that cross my path? Makes my job so so so much easier.
While visiting the Georgia Quilt show I came across a vendor who specializes in purses and Japanese fabric. I have a boat-load of Japanese fabric that I get from Primitive Gatherings and I've been wondering how I was going to use it. I know there is a quilt that I want to do, but I came across this cutie-patootie purse pattern and grabbed it. And today put it together ... the hardest part being "Which fabric do I want to sacrifice for this purse?" THAT is always the hardest part, isn't it? Anyway, this is very very subdued for me, but I like it. I added the Asian buttons, and then put some bling on the embroidered flowers. Cute!
