I finished my quilt for Cindy to display at a quilt festival next month.
The pattern is a smaller version of Dancing Daisies.
My photos were all bombed by my little girl, I think because she loves the quilt!
The fabrics are all from Fluffy Sheep Quilting:
Kona in Plum for the back and binding
Hand quilted using DMC perle cotton no.8
colours: 601, 740, 996
I loved the process of making this quilt and thanks to Cindy for trusting me to create something for her and for having such a great shop with beautiful, modern fabric.

That is really really cool! I adore Russian dolls and that fabric is awesome. I also love the pattern you've used - might just have to go on my to-do list, sigh!!
It's beautiful Lu, stunning job!
This is just so beautiful! What a wonderful finish!
Wow, well done! The hand quilting gives a great finishing touch, Lucy!

Gosh this is a lovely quilt! Beautiful fabric combo and that hand quilting is particularly fabulous!

That's fab, I'm a sucker for a beautiful drunkards path! Love the random placing of the prints too, sometimes things can be too organised, it's free flowing and fun!
GORGEOUS!
Gorgeous! The curvy pattern of the quilt works so well with the curvy Little Matryoshka print. I love the hand quilting!

This is such a beautiful quilt, Lucy. The pattern and fabrics are lovely and your hand quilting looks great. Cindy was very lucky to have you make it :)
So very pretty, Lucy! Love the fabric. But the hand quilting really makes my heart beat faster.
when I saw the first photo I thought, well that young joan has incredibly long arms. LOVE the quilt so pretty
Joan did a good job helping you! Really nice quilt and I like the hand quilting. Cindy will have a stunning quilt to showcase her fabric. Di x
Wonder if Cindy will notice if the wee one nabs it ;o)
I really enjoy how you let the linen just be a frame of sorts for the gorgeous fabric. Simple and quite the statement! Love it!
I love it. It's just beautiful

You are on fire Lucy! Finishes, and blogging daily. Well done on your productivity and getting some mojo going. Cute photo bombing. How old is your little girl? I didn't know you had red heads. My brother is a proper orange as orange red head, a unique species here in Australia, and never seen before in our family. Weird how recessive genes meet up after about five generations. Now I always notice red heads!
Oh, Lucy, it's simply wonderful. You're so right that hand quilting was the way to go. It's a gorgeous quilt. Thank you for putting such time and effort into creating something beautiful. xx
Absolutely lovely. Seriously--I'm in LOVE with this one!!
What a happy quilt! I love the curves with the matryoshka's. A perfect fit!
Gorgeous, love the subtle colours and hand quilting.
