Sticking with my goal to finish one "almost done" project per weekend, I got the borders sewn on to my Provence Baskets quilt. You may recall that when I was piecing these blocks, I felt that they were very far removed from my usual palette, and had quite a few doubts that this quilt was "me". Well, I must be reinventing myself, because I have ended up being very fond of this cheerful quilt! I have a plan to use it in my sewing room once it is quilted, and will re-do the entire decor in that room around its color scheme. I found a little cracked china mosaic vase this weekend that will be the perfect accent piece.
This sunny color scheme will brighten the darkest winter day. Even if I have to sit at the Bernina and stitch 800 half square triangles, the task will go easier with this quilt at my side cheering me on.

Did ya sing my little ditty? I didn’t hear you!?!?!?!? LOL
It’s so sweet and pretty! Good going in achieving your goal.
Love the vase – would be so pretty in my kitchen.
You aren’t going to believe this! When I was looking at the photo of this gorgeous quilt (before I scrolled down to the next photo), I was thinking “This reminds me of chickens.” Then I scrolled down to the chicken vase. I love the Provence pallet.
I love the quilt, Nicole. I’m glad it’s grown on you – it’s really lovely. And that vase is just perfect to go with it!
Love the quilt and the vase!
It’s a lovely quilt!
Gorgeous vase, and I know where you got that. ^_- Lovely quilt, great colors, I think re-doing that room is a great idea!
It is great to be able to sew in a nice bright environment 🙂
I’m stuck with the kitchen table but I do like having things going on around me.
what a great find with the vase – it goes so perfectly with the quilt. Love the colours of the quilt – I love the Provence inspired fabrics.
Wow, that really is a cheery quilt, Nicole. Lucky you…you found the perfect vase to match!
