As promised, I'm back with a picture of the fabulous pattern I purchased from Corliss Searcey of Threadbare on the weekend:
Isn't it just divine? I'm really looking forward to working on this one. In my mind I'm planning on making it larger to fit on my queen size bed - I like them to hang almost to the floor, so 100" square is just perfect to my mind.
Corliss is a woman after my own heart, she has a love of vintage and reproduction style quilts, and as you know, they're my particular calling too. I can see I'll have to make a trip over to visit her store in Castlemaine sometime soon.
Well, I'm off to busy myself with more appliqué circles, I'm two thirds done now, so won't be long and I can get busy putting piecing the border for the Di Ford project. Chatter soon!

I do my quilts at about 100 inch square also and normally add an extra border if needed. I love that pattern and the border as I love to make circles and I'm in the process of that right now on the border that I am making.
Oh WOW, what an extraordinary pattern !
I'm sure you're gonna make a heirloom quilt out of this!
You go, go, girl ! I will follow your progress :))

This one has your name written all over it! Looking forward to cheering you on, once you make a start.
I love that pattern and have been drooling over it since I first saw it. Maybe someday. I just finished the border for the Di Ford quilt and posted about my issues. Would love to hear how it works for you!
This is totally you Taz!
Well, aren't you a sucker for punishment ( meant in the nicest way of course LoL!!)
Wow that'll keep you busy for a while. :-)
