mamma's pop beads

that is the name of this pattern. (even though i didn't follow it all the way) i LOVE this quilt. probably i LOVE the fabric i used in this quilt which makes me LOVE this quilt.
the backing is my pottery barn duvet that i knew i wouldn't use anymore. it's soft and WONDERFUL!!!! so very pretty to me!!

and how can you go wrong with flea market fancy fabric????? i LOVE that pink!!! i still have about a half a yard left and i think i will now start to savor it some. it's VERY hard for me to run out of the fabrics i LOVE.
as always thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. i LOVE hearing from you. you guys are tooooooo kind!! :) have a fantastic weekend. i started two more quilts i can't wait to share. :)

  3. The backing fabric is gorgeous. I so love florals and it is a nice contrast to the 'business' of the front.

  4. I love seeing all of the lovely quilts that you complete. It's all eye candy for me! I understand about not wanting to use up the last of a favorite fabric. You just know you will want to use it again some other time and won't have it :-)

  14. I recognized the backing, because I bought the same duvet cover at a garage sale last year, thinking it would make a great quilt back. Too funny! (No, I haven't used mine yet. Someday!)
