FINALLY FINISHED QUILT

 Feel like I have been making this quilt for ever, but now I have the bug!

Laura Ashley and a bit of vintage floral thrown in (same as my FQ floral bundles I sell.)

 Pre-washed, to pucker the fabric giving it a vintage feel.

 Free hand stitching on the gingham.

I machine bound the front of the binding and hand stiched the back.
