French General finish

I had about 3" of binding left to sew down when I got home from work today. And now I'm finished - yay!


Based on the design Chelsea Charm, my quilt used one Rouennieres jelly roll, and two charm packs. I really enjoyed the doing the hand appliquéd petals. The blocks were machine pieced, and then hand quilted. I love the red backing.



Best get back to some secret sewing tonight........... or maybe prepare In Full Bloom for quilting.
