Blue & Cream Antique Wedding Sampler finished

I actually finished this Antique Wedding Sampler last December and now I've finally been motivated to write about this finish after being inspired by Karen's post on the AWS blocks she is making with a friend. And thanks again to the G'nT Sisters for their help with fabric, colour and design choices.  Once again Katrina did an amazing job of quilting to enhance every individual block.  This post will be very photo heavy  - please enjoy!

 



Isn't it always great when you find the perfect fabric for binding?

This is my favourite block which I modified by doing all of the flowers in broderie perse and changing the vase shape. I love the way Katrina quilted this block to make it look as though the vase is on a pedestal.

It's a pity this wasn't on my 17 UFOs in 2017 list but I'll be back soon with a winter update on the challenge.
