Lake Tahoe in August for my quilting retreat was heavenly!  This is our view from our sewing room during the day.  I learned a lot from the experienced quilters at this retreat and made new friends.  Had so much fun!

Grandmothers Flower Garden Quilt Top

I'm so excited - scored a vintage quilt top that I plan to finish! It is a beautiful Grandmothers Flower Garden. The top and bottom are square and the sides are scalloped. Can anyone date this material? I know it's old - it sure smelled like it!


Am asking all you quilters out there to let me know how you would finish it. Want to hear your ideas please! How would you quilt it?








What kind of backing would you use? I really want to do this quilt top justice so would appreciate your advice!
