It's a top!
Fairlawn Roses
84 x 110
I used all rose prints to make the blocks. The pattern, called Fairlawn, is from the book Making Quilts with Kathy Doughty.
" God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December" --J.M. Barrie
. “We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.” – Abraham Lincoln ( although some attribute quote to Alphonse Karr)
“It will never rain roses: when we want to have more roses, we must plant more roses.”― George Eliot
I do love roses!
And sew on...
Finished or Not Finished Friday at Alicia Quilts

When I went outside to take photos of my quilt top I noticed a lot of animal footprints going through all my gardens. I think most are raccoon and deer and maybe fox. Oh my!
But some may belong to gnomes. Oh my!
