Simple Pleasures

I finally got a picture of Simple Pleasures to show you. I think these stitcheries were finished about a year ago, just waiting for me to make this quilt. I was stuck on what fabrics to use since the pattern showed pinks, blues and yellows and I wanted something different. It took me along time of thinking before I decided on the reproductions.
I also didn't add the prairie points the pattern called for in the instructions. I didn't think it was necessary with the fabrics I picked.

Happy Quilting!

    The quilt is just lovely! And the fabrics you picked out are perfect for it. I don't know what the colors it called for would have looked like, but it couldn't have been better than what you chose!

    The embroideries looks so good with your chosen fabrics. Gives lots of interesting things to look at with both embroidery and all the fabrics.

    Love the colors in your quilt and the little drawings. Did you have a lot of the drawings in the quilt and who did them?
    Very good job

    Great choices! I think the prairie points would have added too much. It's perfect for the sweet sticheries! Great finish!
