First time I see the  Victoria´s Triangles galore I thought I would never do such a block. Then I tried one, two, three... Finally I made fifteen blocks. I used nearly all of my fabric. These blocks remind me  flowers, but honestly, did you ever see flowers with so many colours?  Nevertheless my quilt´s  name is The meadow.   

Flowers grow on the meadow, to finish these flowers I choose some green fabric and also green for borders and Kaffe Fasset dots for inner border and binding. 

I always ask my daughter to help me with a name or colours or pattern. For quilting she   made a suggestion: Rainbow.  I  found embroidery string Sněhurka in my reserve.  I used ordinary needle. I used quite thick polyester batting.  Quilting through American fabric is very easy. I´m very nicely surprised. I think, I will buy them more often.

I adapt quilting pattern for quilting my border. I draw three variations. I have chosen the third.

My completed quilt.

It size is 59" *80" and I love it. Some people ask me to sell it. No, this quilt stay with me.

Can you see the dark violet string on the rihht size?  Measure twice.
