I received one of my quilts in the mail this week and have just finished binding it! Here is the “All Dressed Up” quilt (pattern by Nanette). This quilt is so bright and cheery with its combination of new reproductions from my stash and vintage fabrics from Nanette. Now I get to have some fun adding buttons and other trims to the dresses!

Cindy says
All I can say is WOW at the quilting over at Green Fairy. What a beauty. I often wondered if quilters used more than one color on their quilting and I read that Judi used three colors on your row quilt.
Oh my goodness, you're going to have so much fun playing "dress up"..LOL It'll be like playing dolls again as you decide how to embellish each dress.
Sherri, you truly are a quilting expert. Just beauties!
Jackie says
Two very beautiful quilts!! I just love Nanette's pattern too. The 30s are just way too cute!
Terriaw says
What a pretty dress quilt! I love how the quilting really makes those dresses pop off the quilt top. It's going to look even more adorable when you add buttons. Even the bows add so much charm!
Joanne says
Great quilts! I love the fabric for both of them, I am a fan of vintage and batik fabrics.
