Fontainbleau



Thanks for all the nice comments on my first post. Here is a picture of the full quilt from my last post. It is an original design that was inspired by Marie Antoinette's bedroom at Fontainbleau. I had a lot of fun with this design and hopefully it will be in my guild's quilt show in Sept. As you can see it does not hang straight so I am afraid that I need to remove the binding and rebind it and then block the quilt. I am not really a perfectionist so I hate redoing stuff but this one clearly needs some help. Probably some added quilting in the borders would also help but that is not going to happen! I am too busy with other projects now.

Still figuring out how to post photos so hopefully I will improve soon.
